[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] System semiconductor company CoAsia announced on the 2nd that it will supply lighting LEDs applied to Hyundai Motor Company's first dedicated electric vehicle brand model, the ‘Ioniq 5’, through its LED division (Itswell).
Hyundai Motor Company unveiled the ‘Ioniq 5’, the first model to apply its self-developed electric vehicle dedicated platform ‘E-GMP’, on the 23rd of last month.

The company aims for global sales of 70,000 units this year and 100,000 units next year.

The interior also applied eco-friendly materials and manufacturing methods in line with the brand image.
A company official said, “With the launch of the Ioniq 5, the era of eco-friendly future mobility has officially begun,” adding, “The evolution toward electric and autonomous vehicles shifts the driver’s focus from outside to inside the vehicle, leading to the evolution of interior lighting that considers the emotions and convenience of drivers and passengers.”
