Shares of Hyundai Motor Co. climbed as much as 14.9% in Wednesday morning trading, marking an all-time intraday high and far outpacing the KOSPI benchmark’s 1.2% advance. Market observers attribute the surge to growing investor chatter that Hyundai could deepen its existing collaboration with Nvidia, following the automaker’s inclusion of Nvidia DRIVE computing platforms in its next-generation electric vehicles. Analysts at Mirae Asset Securities noted that such a partnership could accelerate Hyundai’s rollout of software-defined vehicles and advanced driver-assistance features, potentially boosting average selling prices by up to $1,500 per unit. Trading volume on the OTC-listed HYMTF nearly tripled its 30-day average, underscoring heightened investor interest in the stock’s exposure to AI-powered autonomous driving technologies.
