What Does The Hyundai Logo Mean?

Hyundai launched December 29, 1967 in South Korea. Their Ulsan plant was finished the next year. As of today, the plant is the world’s largest integrated automobile manufacturing facility. It has an annual production capacity of 1.6 million units.

The first vehicle assembled at the Ulsan plant was the Ford Cortina. After the huge success with the Cortina, Hyundai moved on to developing its own car. The Pony came to market in December 1975. It was the first mass-produced car in South Korea and was the flagship car for Hyundai for many years. Today, Hyundai is the largest car manufacturer in South Korea and a leader in the automotive industry looking towards the future with advanced technology and environmentally sound vehicles.

The first Hyundai logo came out in 1969. From there, it progressed through the years with a total redo in 1990 with the logo that looks most like it does today. It went through a slight change in the color blue since then.  

The Hyundai logo is a figure of a company representative shaking the hand of a satisfied customer. The handshake exchange is a symbol of trust and satisfaction. You can see that the H leans slightly to the right. This angle symbolizes movement in the “right” direction.
