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.
