This activity in the field of commercial vehicles reflects part of Hyundai Motor’s expansion strategy in the global market. The Southeast Asia region has always been considered an important market for future growth as other important markets with huge potentials.
The first phase of manufacturing in the plant will be carried out in an area of 25 hectares, with an estimated production capacity of about 12,000 passenger cars and buses and about 30,000 trucks per year.
Before the new deal, the production and distribution of commercial vehicles under the Hyundai brand were carried out by different units, creating variance in the market. The HTCV joint venture was founded to create uniform quality for customers in Vietnam.
The Hyundai Group will transfer its most modern machinery and equipment to HTCV to help it meet the demand of the global exports.
