The partnership between NaaS and the Chinese entity of Hyundai Motor Group means Hyundai car owners can check charging and charger installation status in real-time through a smart service App or at the centre console.

China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) statistics suggested that in 2023, electric passenger vehicle sales in China will reach nine million, with annual penetration of EVs expected to climb to 36%. Increasingly, investment in charging infrastructure has been devoted in China to meet the growing demand for charging.

"Charging facilities as a significant component of new infrastructure serves a crucial role in improving the penetration of EVs," said Wang Yang, founder and CEO of NaaS.  "Partnered with new energy industry chain players, NaaS will engage users in faster, easier and more cost-effective charging service, and work with Hyundai Motor Group (China) to spur the upgrade of charging services."

"China is the world's biggest and fastest-growing EV market. The country not only has outstanding performance in EV sales and quantity of charging infrastructure built but also excels in EV service quality,” said Hyuk Joon Lee, president and head of China operations at the Hyundai Motor Group. “This will provide a valuable reference for Hyundai’s action of advancing EV service in the global market. Through cooperation with NaaS, Hyundai Motor Group will continue to improve and expand charging services to provide EV car owners with a more convenient and updated charging service experience."
