Hyundai Motor shares rose in early trading on the 10th. Optimism about the Robotics business appears to be growing after a new training video of the Humanoid Robot "Atlas," which Hyundai Motor Group is preparing to deploy on production lines, was released.
As of 10:35 a.m., Hyundai Motor was trading at 483,000 won, up 5,000 won (1.05%) from the previous session.
According to Hyundai Motor Group the previous day, robot subsidiary Boston Dynamics on the 7th (local time) released a training video showing Atlas performing a cartwheel and a back tuck in succession.
Atlas, which appeared for the first time in a month since the world's largest IT expo "CES 2026," looked a step closer to real-world deployment.
As a result, optimism about the Robotics business has spread across Hyundai Motor Group stocks. At the same time, Hyundai AutoEver (5.52%), Hyundai Glovis (0.41%), and Hyundai Mobis (0.11%) were also rising.
Lim Eun-young, a Samsung Securities researcher, said, "Hyundai Motor Group's robot strategy is unfolding around the Robotics Lab, including Boston Dynamics, a general-purpose robot maker, as well as wearable, service, and mobile robots," adding, "Robot revenue will start to come in from the second half of this year." Lim projected annual robot business revenue at between 150 billion and 200 billion won.
