“Channel Hyundai is our solution to the growing need for enhanced digital experiences amid the global pandemic,” said Wonhong Cho, Executive Vice President and Global Chief Marketing Officer of Hyundai Motor. “Our hope is that watching content on the big screen will bring family members together for a shared digital experience, since digital experiences can often feel isolated.”
The app features three categories: Live, TV, and Models. There are plans to add more modules in the future. The Live category features product launches and presentations. The 2021 Hyundai Tucson will be revealed via the app on September 15.
The TV category will feature videos covering a wide range of lifestyle topics. I addition to shared original content, the company will produce content exclusively for the channel.
Using the Models category, users can browse and learn more about Hyundai vehicles. This section also includes a virtual interactive showroom.
