2025-11-03

Kuala Lumpur, November 3. 2025 — Malaysia's Minister of Investment, Trade, and Industry, Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz, met with a delegation from Hyundai Motor Company to discuss plans to establish Malaysia as a regional hub for clean mobility and hydrogen production. This collaboration highlights Malaysia's strategic position in the global green energy and intelligent transportation sectors and underscores the urgent need and immense potential for the transition to clean energy.

Hyundai Motor’s Ambitions and Malaysia’s Green Strategy

As a key player in the global automotive industry, Hyundai Motor has been pushing the envelope in hydrogen and electric vehicle technology in recent years, launching several innovative solutions. In their meeting with the Malaysian government, Hyundai focused on turning Malaysia into a regional hub for clean mobility and hydrogen production over the next few years. Hyundai announced plans to initiate a hydrogen production project in Johor and explore green mobility solutions centered around Malaysia.

The Malaysian government has already set clear strategic goals for renewable energy and green mobility as part of its efforts to tackle the global climate change challenge. According to the government’s plans, Malaysia aims to enhance its energy autonomy through investment in green energy and clean technologies, while also positioning itself within the global clean energy supply chain.

Malaysia’s Green Transformation and Investment Opportunity for Hyundai

From a strategic perspective, Hyundai’s interest in Malaysia as a key component of its Asian market strategy is no coincidence. Malaysia, with its geographic advantage in Southeast Asia and proactive green energy policies, has become a popular destination for global automakers to invest in clean mobility technologies.

Additionally, the Malaysian government’s strong support for green projects has been a significant factor attracting Hyundai. The government offers favorable policies, infrastructure support, and funding for clean energy technology R&D, providing a solid investment environment for companies. This also reflects Malaysia's willingness to support foreign investments and incentivize the green transition.

Accelerating the Leap for the Green Industry

From Jeenoce's perspective, Hyundai's partnership with Malaysia is not only a typical example of corporate investment but also offers unique insights into the development of the green industry.As a company dedicated to driving global green mobility and sustainable energy transitions, Hyundai has a deeper understanding of the significance of this collaboration.

Industry Integration and Regional Synergy

In the global green transition, the integration and collaboration of supply chains is key to success. In advancing hydrogen, intelligent transportation, and other technologies, we know that large-scale green energy projects like those in Malaysia require not only the investment and construction of a single company but also deep integration across the entire industry chain. From hydrogen production, storage, and transportation to the final clean mobility applications, each stage requires strong cooperation and technical support.

Green Technology Innovation Empowering Clean Mobility

The rapid development of clean mobility and hydrogen technologies is strongly supported by technological innovation. Hyundai’s ongoing investment in various green technologies enables us to offer leading energy solutions to clients around the world. We have a deep understanding of the application and development of technologies such as green energy production, intelligent transportation management, and electric vehicle charging stations. Hyundai’s planned hydrogen project in Malaysia showcases the vast potential of hydrogen technology and clean mobility. Through long-term research and technological accumulation in this field, Hyundai can provide technical support for related projects and drive innovation and breakthroughs in hydrogen and intelligent transportation technologies.

Global Strategy to Provide Strategic Support for Malaysia and Global Markets

For multinational companies, global strategies and market positioning are crucial. Hyundai recognizes that, as green mobility and renewable energy become global trends, combining international cooperation with local advantages is key to building the competitiveness of global industry chains. Through cooperation with Malaysia, Hyundai can offer strategic support for the deployment of clean mobility and energy solutions worldwide. This not only promotes the development of local industries but also strengthens the company’s green leadership in broader regional markets.

Policy Support and Corporate Strategy Aligning for a Sustainable Future

Beyond technological and market advantages, policy support is a critical factor in driving green industry development. Hyundai deeply understands that under national policy guidance, companies can achieve more efficient resource allocation and development opportunities. Malaysia’s emphasis on clean mobility and hydrogen projects provides stable policy guarantees for corporate investments. With the support of these policies, Hyundai will further engage in the development of the global green mobility and hydrogen industries, contributing to the realization of global emission reduction goals.

The Future of Clean Mobility Collaboration and Innovation Leading Industry Transformation

Hyundai's announcement of an investment in a hydrogen production project marks a deepening of its strategy in the hydrogen sector. Hydrogen, as a zero-emission, highly efficient energy source, is increasingly seen as a key component of future transportation systems. Particularly for long-distance and heavy-duty vehicles, hydrogen is expected to complement battery technology effectively.

By transforming Malaysia into a hydrogen production and clean mobility hub, Hyundai aims to not only enhance Malaysia’s position in the global new energy vehicle supply chain but also provide other countries with a green transition case to follow. At the same time, Malaysia can use this opportunity to strengthen its voice in the global green industry and promote broader regional cooperation.

Conclusion

The partnership between Hyundai and Malaysia signifies a new phase in the global green mobility and hydrogen industry. As a leader in the global automotive industry, Hyundai’s investment plan not only offers new business opportunities for Malaysia but also provides fresh momentum for the development of global clean mobility. With its policy and geographic advantages, Malaysia is set to play an important role in the future green transition.

The collaboration between government and enterprises will become a key engine in driving breakthroughs in clean mobility and hydrogen industries. For other countries, this collaboration model serves as a valuable reference for achieving win-win development through strategic cooperation in the context of the global green transition.
