[Special Stock] DY Eyes Contract Manufacturing for Hyundai-Google Robotaxi... Spotlight on Core Technology Development History↑
DY is showing strength. It is interpreted as being influenced by the news that Hyundai Motor is discussing the consignment production of robo-taxis (unmanned taxis) in cooperation with Google Waymo.
As of 11:02 AM on the 19th, DY is trading at 4,755 KRW, up 4.05% from the previous day.
According to a media report the day before, senior executives from Hyundai Motor and Google Waymo are said to have discussed the consignment production of robo-taxis. Waymo operates about 1,000 robo-taxis in the U.S., including the Jaguar I-PACE electric vehicle, Chrysler Pacifica hybrid, and Geely Auto's Zeekr electric vehicle.
Waymo reportedly needed a substitute due to increased tariffs on Geely Auto's Zeekr electric vehicles in China. Accordingly, Hyundai Motor and Waymo are said to be discussing replacing the Zeekr electric vehicle with the Ioniq 5. They also plan to equip the 6th generation autonomous driving specialized system.
The 6th generation autonomous driving system will be equipped with high-performance cameras, four LiDAR units, and six radars. Unlike the 5th generation autonomous driving system, which is equipped with existing cameras, five LiDAR units, and six radars, it reduces the number of expensive LiDAR units and installs next-generation imaging radar.
