Hyundai in America
Hyundai is announcing the release of a new report from the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) that details the company's and its network of independent dealers’ significant impact on the United States’ economy. The report provides an analysis of Hyundai's robust contributions to job creation, capital investments, and overall economic growth within the U.S
The report found that, in combination with its independent dealer network, Hyundai contributes over 190,000 American jobs and adds $20.1 billion annually to the U.S. economy, as of 2021.
The report estimates that Hyundai and its independent dealers contributed a total of 190,950 U.S. jobs, as of 2021. Hyundai’s operations directly employed 7,050 individuals, while its extensive independent dealer network employed an impressive 54,100 people in 2021.
- Hyundai and its dealer networks have a wide-reaching impact on job creation, supporting 53,400 supplier jobs throughout the automotive industry. An additional 76,000 jobs are created throughout the economy through the expenditures of these direct and indirect employees, CAR estimates, bringing the total number of jobs Hyundai contributes to the U.S. economy to 190,950.
With a job multiplier effect of 8.3 – meaning that an additional 7.3 jobs are generated for every job that Hyundai’s automotive operations create – the report further establishes Hyundai as an integral catalyst to many local economies. The job multiplier for Hyundai’s dealer operations is 2.5.
The job multiplier describes the indirect and induced employment effects that result from a given economic activity. In Hyundai’s case, the job multiplier is 8.3 throughout all of the company’s U.S. automotive operations, meaning that an additional 7.3 jobs are generated for every job that Hyundai’s automotive operations create.
As Hyundai’s network of 835 U.S. dealerships are owned and operated by independent entrepreneurs, the report counted these jobs separately from those created by Hyundai’s own automotive operations. The job multiplier specifically associated with Hyundai’s dealership operations is 2.5.
Hyundai creates and supports thousands of jobs across the U.S. Headquartered in Fountain Valley, California, Hyundai’s U.S. footprint currently encompasses four states, with a manufacturing and assembly facility in Alabama, and seven cutting-edge R&D facilities in California, Michigan, and Montana.1 Hyundai is also building new state-of-the-art manufacturing plants in Georgia as part of its significant investment in the electric vehicle transition.
Our dealer network spans 835 locations across all 50 states, extending Hyundai’s reach deep into local communities as well.
In 2021 alone, Hyundai’s U.S. capital investments toward existing facilities surpassed $3.2 billion, with 97% of these investments going toward Alabama, California, and Georgia.

We remain committed to investing in and contributing to the U.S. Last year, Hyundai committed over $10.6 billion in new electrification projects, which will create more than 13,500 new jobs and stimulate an additional 49,300, further accelerating the country’s manufacturing goals.
- In Bryan County, Georgia, Hyundai Motor Group (HMG), which includes Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis operations worldwide, is building a $5.54 billion smart factory, set to be completed in 2025. In partnership with LG Energy Solutions, HMG announced an additional $2 billion investment in August 2023 to further bolster the site’s battery manufacturing capabilities. This cutting-edge facility will propel Hyundai to the forefront of the U.S. auto industry's transition to electric vehicles.
- Combined with HMG’s partnership with lithium-ion battery maker SK On to invest $4-5 billion in a battery manufacturing plant in Bartow County, Georgia, these investments represent one of the largest economic development projects in the state’s history. These projects will also employ an estimated 8,500 people throughout Georgia once complete.
- The cumulative effect of the 2022 investments will lead to the direct creation of 13,500 jobs as well as an additional 49,300 jobs, CAR estimates, through supplier contracts and other economic activities, further stimulating growth and progress throughout the U.S.
Hyundai Motor Group, which includes Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis operations worldwide, announced significant investments of more than $10.6 billion in the U.S. to bolster the EV supply chain in 2022 alone.
This includes $5.54 billion for opening a manufacturing plant in Georgia that will produce up to 300,000 EVs each year in partnership with LG Energy Solutions, HMG announced an additional $2 billion investment in August 2023 to further bolster the site’s battery manufacturing capabilities.
We also finalized plans for a $4-5 billion battery plant in Georgia, scheduled to go online in 2025, capable of manufacturing enough batteries for 300,000 EVs annually.
To support the energy transition and make EVs more affordable and accessible, we are utilizing other government incentives for leased and rented EVs and offering competitive pricing options.
We are also introducing innovative pricing solutions and incentives, such as complimentary charging with our Electrify America network and bonuses for specific programs like Military, First Responders, and College Graduates. Additionally, we are constantly evaluating the marketplace to ensure our EVs are priced competitively, making them attractive options for customers interested in transitioning to zero-emissions vehicles.
CAR estimates that the cumulative effect of the 2022 EV investments will lead to the direct creation of 13,500 jobs and an additional 49,300 jobs through supplier contracts and other economic activities, further stimulating growth and progress in the region.
An additional $2 billion worth of new investments are expected from other players within the automotive industry landscape as a result of Hyundai’s historic commitment to domestic EV production. These new investments will create approximately 4,650 new jobs and demonstrates how Hyundai is stimulating further economic activity.
Hyundai has taken several steps to minimize its carbon footprint and is dedicated to reducing negative environmental impacts throughout its entire value chain.
Most immediately, Hyundai is developing and deploying the full range of sustainable powertrain technologies to create a planet-friendly, zero-emission mobility ecosystem. This includes shifting the company’s fleet towards primarily electric options, allowing Hyundai’s projected EV sales to account for 58% of total U.S. vehicle sales by 2030. Hyundai is also increasing the use of eco-friendly materials, reducing air and water pollutants, and utilizing raw materials more efficiently.
Our customers value the exceptional quality and artisanship of our latest models and appreciate that they are engineered with careful consideration for their needs, as evidenced in the recent JD Power results.
Our success comes from great products, great strategy, and even more so, the great support from our dealers in Canada, Mexico, and America who provide customers with exceptional buying and ownership experiences.
Since its establishment in 2016, Genesis Motor America has also meaningfully contributed to our success in the U.S. market, with a new annual record of 56,410 vehicles sold in 2022 through our joint network of 262 retailers nationwide. Genesis too plays an important role in our electrification strategy, having committed to delivering an all-electric product lineup by 2030.
With strong support from our leaders in Korea, we’re on track for success with added investments in North America:
- Over $12.6 billion for EV manufacturing in Georgia and Alabama ─ to strengthen our ability to provide world-class products and innovative technologies for consumers.
- In 2023, we produced 6 (Tucson/Santa Fe/Santa Cruz/Elantra) different models at the plant in Alabama, including the Santa FE HEV and electrified GV70.
- We are the world’s first – and only – manufacturer to offer a dedicated hydrogen-powered fuel cell SUV – NEXO.
Our marketing efforts have transformed Hyundai from a brand known only for its affordability. Customers are excited about our brands and are willing to pay more for our vehicles.
Hyundai’s economic activities go hand in hand with our philanthropic efforts. They are part of our pursuit to drive progress for humanity, and we are deeply proud of our contributions to the American economy and to local communities through the work that we do through our dealers’ CSR initiatives. One of Hyundai’s most important corporate social responsibility programs in the U.S. is Hyundai Hope On Wheels (HHOW), which has committed $250 million to pediatric cancer research.
Similarly, Genesis Motor America's "Genesis Gives" initiative, launched in 2022, and the Genesis Inspiration Fund, launched in 2018, echo this commitment to social impact. Genesis Gives specifically targets under-resourced communities, aiming to improve access to youth sports and education in fields like technology, engineering, art, and mathematics, and has stood on donations totaling $1.5 million since its inception. The Genesis Inspiration Fund has donated $8 million to organizations focused on connecting youth to the arts, particularly those in under-resourced neighborhoods.

Before buying a particular child restraint system (child safety seat), make sure it fits your car and your child, and complies with your state’s specific safety requirements. You should look for a child safety seat that meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).
Child safety seat recommendations are made based on the child’s age, weight, and height. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) provides the following guidelines:
- Infants, from birth to at least age one, weighing at least 20 pounds should ride in the backseat in a rear-facing safety seat. Infants weighing 20 pounds or more before one year should ride in a convertible child safety seat rated for heavier infants (most convertible seats are rated up to 30-35 pounds rear facing).
- Children over one year and at least 20 pounds may ride in a forward-facing child safety seat in the backseat. Children should ride in a safety seat with full harness until they reach the upper weight or height limit of the particular seat (usually around age 4 and 40 pounds).
- All children who have outgrown child safety seats should be properly restrained in booster seats until they are at least 8 years old, unless they are 4'9" or taller.
All child safety seat harness straps should be fitted snug against your child, and should lie in a relatively straight line, without sagging or excessive slack. Please read your child safety seat's instruction manual for further information and visit the NHTSA website: visit the NHTSA website
For more on the selection and installation of effective child restraint systems, please visit the Child Passenger Safety section of the NHTSA website: Child Passenger Safety section of the NHTSA website
In between service visits, there are several things you can do to help keep your vehicle running like new. Below are some general guidelines. Please be sure to check your Owner’s Manual for specific information on maintaining your vehicle or visit MyHyundai.com.
- Engine oil - Check your oil at every fuel fill-up. Add oil if the level is below the lower mark on your dipstick.
- Engine coolant - Check the coolant in your engine often (at least monthly) by checking the reserve tank. Be sure to check the reserve tank and make sure not to remove the radiator cap when the engine is warm—the fluid inside can be extremely hot.
- Windshield washer fluid - Check your windshield washer fluid at every fuel fill-up.
- Automatic transmission fluid - Your authorized Hyundai dealer should check your automatic transmission fluid, linkage, and controls yearly.
- Brake fluid - Brake fluid level has an indicator light in the instrument cluster. If the light illuminates, contact your local Hyundai dealer.
- Tires - Check your tire pressure at least monthly to ensure that your tires are properly inflated (this includes your spare). Also be sure to check tire tread for uneven or excessive wear and foreign objects.
- Air conditioning - Check your air conditioning often by turning it on for a short time regularly.
- Lights - Check all of your lights—head, tail, parking, brake lights, high-mount brake light, turn signals, backup and license plate lights—at least monthly.

Hyundai Programs
- If you select "Come to me" a Hyundai sales representative will come to the location of your choice, with the model vehicle of your choice, at the date and time you select.
- If you select "Go to Dealer" you will still choose the date, time, and model vehicle you'd like to test drive, and you will head to the closest available dealership for the test drive. The nice part is you now have a booked appointment and the sales representatives will be ready to go when you get there.
Transparent Pricing: Dealer provides their price up front and on the dealer websites.
Streamlined Purchase: Participating dealers will offer online tools for shoppers to fill out paperwork and get pre-qualified prior to ever stepping foot on the dealer lot. Shoppers will also be able to get their trade-in value online so they are well informed and comfortable with their purchase.
Flexible Test Drive: Convenient ways to schedule a test drive either at your desired location or at the dealership, all booked from the ease of the Hyundai Drive mobile app or by calling the dealer directly.
3 Day Worry-Free Exchange: If you are not happy with your purchase, you can return it within 3 days and exchange it for another new Hyundai.*
*Under the 3 Day Worry-Free Exchange, a customer who purchases or leases a new Hyundai vehicle from a participating dealer may return the Hyundai vehicle for any reason to exchange it for another new Hyundai vehicle, provided that: 1) the Hyundai vehicle is returned to the dealership where the vehicle was purchased or leased within three (3) days from the date of purchase/lease (with the three-day period being extended by one day if the final day of the three-day period falls when the dealership is closed); 2) the returned vehicle is in “like new” condition (e.g., the automobile has not been in an accident and is free from modifications, dents, scratches, tears, breaks, cracks, stains, etc.) as determined by the dealer; 3) the customer has driven the returned vehicle less than 300 miles from the date of purchase/lease; and 4) the returned vehicle is free from any outside lien. If the returned vehicle meets all of these requirements, the customer may exchange it for another new Hyundai vehicle, subject to the mutual agreement of the customer and dealer on the terms of the new vehicle purchase or lease. Additional costs may apply to exchanges for a vehicle of greater value. See participating Hyundai dealers or hyundaiusa.com/us/en/shopperassurance.html for details.
Depending on the dealer site, trade-in value is estimated using Kelley Blue Book®, Black Book® or Edmunds data.*
