Hyundai Motor published its 2026 sustainability report

By pairing its 35% minimum return target with RE100 progress, Hyundai demonstrates that sustainability and financial goals are mutually reinforcing. Hyundai Motor has published its 2026 Sustainability Report, highlighting RE100 fulfillment in Europe, North America and India and a shareholder return program with a minimum return target of 35% over 2025-2027. The report also introduces a ‘Just Transition’ initiative to retrain the workforce and an artificial intelligence (AI) governance framework as the automaker manages its transition to electrification. Fulfillment of RE100 was achieved through methods such as renewable energy certificates and power purchase agreements (PPAs), with a separate 147 MW photovoltaic PPA signed at Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA) in Georgia. José Muñoz, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hyundai Motor Company, said in a statement: “At Hyundai, we do not assume that progress is inevitable. It must be achieved through consistent and determined action every year. Sustainability is a fundamental part of our transformation into a high-tech mobility company. This report is our accounting to 2025, the progress our teams have made, and the work still in progress.” We’re proud of how far we’ve come, and we’re clear on how far we have to go. We will continue to do more this year and beyond. On governance, Hyundai has introduced a Lead Independent Director system and strengthened board diversity, with four female directors and three international directors among the 12-strong board. The company has also adopted the Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework to manage biodiversity risk across operations.
