Hyundai Motor will provide official protocol vehicles for delegations from various countries participating in the first-ever Korea-Central Asia Summit, to be held in Korea on September 16.
On the 27th, Hyundai Motor signed a "Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Vehicle Support for the First Korea-Central Asia Summit in 2026" with the Preparatory Planning Team for the First Korea-Central Asia Summit at Seoul's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Seohui Hall. Attending the event were government and Hyundai Motor officials, including Deputy Minister Hee-hye Jeong (who also serves as Head of the Preparatory Planning Team for the First Korea-Central Asia Summit) and Dong-jo Kim, Executive Director of Hyundai Motor's Global Procurement Office (GPO).
The First Korea-Central Asia Summit, the only multilateral summit held in Korea this year, will bring together leaders from Korea and five Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) to discuss cooperation plans across various fields including economy, diplomacy, and trade.
During the September summit period, Hyundai Motor plans to provide 33 Genesis G90 and G80 vehicles as protocol cars for key foreign dignitaries, including officials at the Jeong Sang-gwa (Minister) level from the five Central Asian countries. Hyundai Motor intends to support large sedans from the Genesis brand to facilitate smooth operations of major diplomatic events held in Korea and to promote the commercial appeal of Genesis vehicles.
Hyundai Motor has consistently provided protocol and operational vehicles for major international events both domestically and internationally, including the "2025 APEC Summit (Gyeongju)," the "2025 G20 Johannesburg Summit (South Africa)," and the "2024 Korea-Africa Summit (Seoul·Goyang)." The company also plans to supply event vehicles for the 49th ASEAN Summit, to be held in the Philippines in November.
A Hyundai Motor official stated, "It is significant that we are providing protocol vehicles for the first-ever Korea-Central Asia Summit held in Korea," and added, "Based on our experience supporting vehicles at various international events both domestically and abroad, we will actively cooperate to ensure the successful conduct of this summit as well."
