<p>According to a statement from Samsung SDI, “the latest supply deal marks the first ever partnership between Samsung and Hyundai Motor Group in the field of electric vehicle batteries.”</p>
<p>The battery manufacturer, which also supplies General Motors Co., Stellantis, and BMW, revealed that from 2026 to 2032, it would provide prismatic batteries made at its Hungary-based production for Hyundai Motor’s EVs aimed for the European market.</p>
<p>Samsung SDI would probably deliver EV batteries that could power around 500,000 EVs over the next seven years, according to a person familiar with the situation who spoke to Reuters. Samsung SDI and Hyundai Motor did not specify the amount of the transaction.</p>
<p>Earlier this month, Samsung SDI announced plans to spend $2 billion on the construction of a second joint EV battery facility in Indiana, the United States, with Stellantis. Production is expected to begin in 2027.</p>
