Hyundai Motor Co. kicked off final assembly of its Ioniq 6 electric sedan in Singapore on Friday, reaffirming a commitment to the factory that could one day churn out as many as 30,000 cars a year.

The South Korean automaker began local assembly of the Ioniq 5 sport utility vehicle, which shares the same platform as the Ioniq 6, in May last year.

That model imports a body shell from Indonesia and uses other parts shipped from Korea while the Ioniq 6’s body shell is also imported from Hyundai’s home base.
 
SOUTH Korean carmaker Hyundai launched its second made-in-Singapore electric vehicle (EV) on Friday (Jul 19), opening order books for a locally assembled version of its Ioniq 6 sedan.

Four models are available: two with 55 kilowatt hour (kWh) batteries that need a Category A Certificate of Entitlement (COE), and two with 77 kWh batteries that need a Category B COE.

Prices range from S$192,150 to S$244,850, including COE.

Production began at the end of June at the Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Center Singapore (HMGICS) in Bulim Avenue.

HMGICS, an advanced research-and-assembly facility in the Jurong Innovation District, is the Republic’s first EV factory. It was officially opened in November 2023.

Assembly of the first locally produced EV, the Ioniq 5, began in early 2023. Both the Ioniq 5 and 6 take around 9.5 hours to produce. The factory also produces an autonomous version of the Ioniq 5 for US-based robotaxi company Motional.
 
Unlike Hyundai cars that are made elsewhere and sold here, the new Ioniq 6 debuts a new feature that will be available for all Singapore-made models: Hyundai’s app-based Bluelink Internet-connected services.

This means users can update the car’s software over the Internet and operate certain functions with voice control.

The power of free trade agreements. PAP signed free trade agreements with all The major economies.
Hyundai EV will use batteries made in Indonesia as plants currently under construction
And batteries make up maybe 50% of cost of EB. But as battery price decline, that percentage too will go down.
