Hyundai Reaffirms India’s 26-Model Vehicle Roadmap Through 2030
Hyundai is a car company planning a large expansion in India.
It wants to launch or update 26 vehicles there by 2030.
Seven of these will be completely new types of vehicles for the company.
The first major new model is an electric SUV designed and localised for India, planned for the fourth quarter of 2026.
Hyundai also plans a new petrol-powered mid-size SUV.
The company expects SUVs to make up 80% of its Indian sales by 2030.
It plans to build 320,000 more vehicles each year in India and use about 90% or more locally sourced content.
Hyundai will offer several kinds of engines and electric systems because customers in different markets are adopting electric vehicles at different speeds.
It also plans to expand globally and begin making robots with Boston Dynamics in 2028.
Hyundai plans to launch or refresh 26 vehicles in India by 2030, including seven all-new nameplates.
The India pipeline includes an India-designed electric SUV in the fourth quarter of 2026 and a new internal-combustion mid-size SUV.
Hyundai expects SUVs to account for 80% of its Indian sales and is targeting more than 15% domestic market share by FY30.
India’s annual production capacity is set to rise by 320,000 units, with local vehicle content targeted at about 90% or more than 90%.
Hyundai will pursue petrol, CNG, hybrid, electric and extended-range vehicles while expanding global production and planning robot manufacturing through Boston Dynamics.
