Hyundai Seals Singapore MOUs on EV Fleet Pilot and Hydrogen Technology

The deals position Hyundai’s Singapore hub to pilot public‑sector EVs, with exploratory work on hydrogen infrastructure.

Overview

  • Hyundai signed separate MOUs with Singapore’s HTX and EDB on Oct. 31 at the APEC K‑Tech Showcase in Gyeongju, formalized in statements published Nov. 2–3.
  • The HTX agreement launches a technology demonstration through 2028 using Hyundai’s multipurpose modular electric platform to boost Home Team fleet efficiency.
  • Hyundai will provide technical support and directly supply vehicles for the pilot in coordination with the Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Center Singapore.
  • The EDB partnership will scope low‑carbon projects such as hydrogen power generation, long‑distance transport and possible use of Singapore’s pipeline network, aligned with the Green Plan 2030.
  • Hyundai frames the EDB collaboration as a potential step toward a wider Southeast Asian hydrogen network via the SingaporeJohor free trade zone, with both MOUs non‑binding and project details still to come.
