Hyundai is no different as they have created a complete line of hybrid, PHEV, and EV vehicles. This is all part of Hyundai's plan to have every Hyundai sold in significant markets be electric by 2040, with the entire company being 100% carbon neutral by 2045. On top of that, Hyundai is making the journey easier through complementary charging and several home-energy solutions.
