Gothenburg, 13 January, 2014: SKF has been nominated by Hyundai Motors as a supplier for business valued at approximately SEK 370 million. Within the terms of the agreement, SKF will deliver the recently launched robust MacPherson suspension bearing unit (MSBU). The solutions will be equipping both Hyundai and Kia vehicles like Ceed, Forte, Soul, i30, Sonata, K5, i40, Grandeur, K7, Santa Fe and Sorento. The length of the business is expected to last the life of each car model. Tryggve Sthen, President, SKF Automotive says, “I am very pleased to see our expanding partnership with Hyundai for the steering and suspension application with our recently launched robust solutions. Our engineering knowledge supports our customers in their journey to improve the performance of their vehicles. It is rewarding to have this recognition from Hyundai and I look forward to a continued growing partnership.” Byeong-Jun Kim, Purchasing Director, Hyundai Motors says, “Working with SKF, we know we get the advanced and high performing solutions we need for our vehicles to reach the top of the line.
