According to Hyundai Motors Indonesia President Director Kenny Lee, the Neira aims to offer a spacious interior along with advanced EV technology tailored for the Indonesian market.
One of the biggest announcements is Hyundai's plan to manufacture the Neira locally in Indonesia. Production will take place at the company's Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Indonesia (HMMI) facility, reinforcing Hyundai's commitment to expanding its electric vehicle presence in Southeast Asia.
The company also stated that the vehicle displayed at GIIAS remains a prototype and will continue to undergo refinement before the final production model is introduced.
