It is well known that the internal team of the Hyundai group has been developing this new type of battery for almost two years, and it will soon be officially launched on the 5th generation Santa Fe model.

“We have plans to introduce the battery that we designed ourselves on the recently launched 5th generation Santa Fe hybrid,” said a representative from Hyundai Motor.

In 2021, Hyundai Motor Group and SK Innovation announced their collaboration to develop hybrid batteries for electric vehicles (HEV). Hyundai Motor has signed an MOU with SK to jointly develop hybrid batteries, with Hyundai taking charge of the battery design and evaluation, and SK handling the technology and mass production.

“Hyundai Motor Co has taken the lead in verifying the materials, technical specifications, and design of the battery, evaluating the product, and improving performance to achieve optimal efficiency. This has allowed us to establish a new partnership between automotive manufacturers and battery companies,” said a Hyundai leader.

According to Hyundai, 55% of the orders for the new generation 2024 Santa Fe model are for the hybrid version, while the remaining 45% are for the traditional internal combustion engine versions. The gasoline version of the Hyundai Santa Fe 2024 has been available in the Korean market since last month, and the production of the hybrid version is expected to commence at the end of October 2023.
