FISITA is the world's largest association of academic institutions in the automotive sector, involving automotive engineering associations from 36 countries around the world, with about 210,000 global automotive researchers currently working as members.
In addition, about 2,000 people, including technology leaders and experts in the global mobility industry, gather every other year to share technology and hold a conference to strengthen networking.
In particular, Kim Chang-hwan, vice president of Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors' electric energy solutions, who was elected as the first Korean president of FISITA, will begin his two-year term this month. Vice President Kim Chang-hwan is the chairman of FISITA, who presides over the board and committees of the global automotive engineering association.
In this connection, Hyundai Motor Group announced the group's future technology vision as the only prime partner of FISITA WMC this year and operated an exhibition program, showing the group's elevated global status.
First, on the 3rd, the first day of the conference, Hyundai Motor CEO Jose Munoz shared Hyundai Motor Group's future technology vision with mobility industry leaders and engineers around the world through a keynote speech.

As an example of a European technology partnership, Hyundai Motor Group will present ▲ Software and hardware utilization cases for virtual performance verification ▲ PHM technology-based SDV vehicle chassis reliability research ▲ new bushing technology to implement EV harmonization performance.
There will also be a time to present the development status of technology researchers in the mobility industry who attended from around the world. Seventeen researchers from Hyundai Motor and Kia will attend the session and present excellent papers on various topics such as ▲ battery ▲ body prior technology ▲ heat management ▲ self-driving ▲ automated design.
In addition, Hyundai Motor Group operates an exhibition program that emphasizes its unique hydrogen mobility technology. To this end, an exhibition zone will be set up under the theme of "All-New Nexo" for the realization of a hydrogen society, and a fuel cell system applied to the new hydrogen electric vehicle "The All New Nexo" and Nexo will be introduced together.
"FISHITA is playing a critical role in leading the future through global cooperation, innovation, and inclusive leadership while the mobility industry is in a major transition period," said Kim Chang-hwan, vice president of FISITA.
