现代汽车集团于5月13日宣布，将参与一项由政府主导的光州自动驾驶汽车项目。现代汽车和起亚将基于Ioniq 5开发约200辆自动驾驶汽车。
5月13日，现代汽车和起亚与韩国国土交通部、光州市政府以及Autonomous A2Z和Ride Flux等初创公司签署了一份谅解备忘录。签署仪式在距离首尔西南约270公里的光州市举行。
根据协议，这两家汽车制造商将基于Ioniq 5车型开发约200辆自动驾驶汽车，并在该市运营移动出行服务，包括车辆调度和车队控制。子公司42dot研发的Atria AI软件将负责分析道路数据，以提升自动驾驶能力。
该项目旨在实现L4级自动驾驶，即车辆在指定区域内无需人工干预即可处理所有驾驶任务。政府将放宽相关法规，将光州打造为自动驾驶特别区。
韩国国土交通部长官金润德表示：“我们在自动驾驶领域不能落后于美国和中国等领先国家。”他补充称，韩国的目标是跻身该领域全球前三强。
