Hyundai Turns Ioniq 9 Into High-Tech Drone Hub for Forest Restoration!

Hyundai Motor’s electric SUV, the Ioniq 9, has been transformed into a mobile drone command center to aid in forest restoration efforts in Uljin, North Gyeongsang Province, following devastating wildfires. This innovative project is part of the automaker’s commitment to social responsibility. The full-size electric SUV serves as a high-tech base of operations, with its battery powering an advanced drone control system complete with a computer and dual monitors. This setup allows for precise deployment of drones, which disperse a carefully crafted mixture of tree seeds and soil over hard-to-reach areas, jumpstarting the regrowth process. (Hyundai Motor Group)
