The industry is paying attention to whether cooperation between Hyundai Motor Group and Samsung will expand with this opportunity.
According to the industry on the 28th, Hyundai Motor Company will apply a new side mirror system to Ioniq 5, which first applied E-GMP, an electric vehicle platform.
A side mirror that uses a regular mirror like a conventional vehicle is standard, but a function that uses a side view camera instead of a side mirror will be provided as an option.
When this function is selected, the occupant will check the surrounding screen shot by the camera on the indoor display instead of the actual mirror.
It is known that the indoor display to which Samsung Display’s OLED will be applied will be placed on the top of the driver’s seat and passenger seat doors.
Earlier in July last year, Audi’s first electric vehicle sports utility vehicle (SUV), the e-tron 55 quattro, was applied for the first time in mass-produced cars. The OLED display mounted on the e-tron is also a product of Samsung Display.
An industry insider said, “We know that Samsung Display has already taken the lead in the automotive OLED display market, and it has excellent technological prowess so that it fits the requirements of Hyundai Motor Company.”
As the side view camera function is optional, the quantity itself may not be much, but the industry is paying attention to the cooperation between Hyundai Motor Company and Samsung.
Although the products of Harman, a electronics company that Samsung acquired in 2017, are part of Hyundai Motor Company, there has been virtually no heavy business contract between Hyundai Motor Company and Samsung. It is known that this is the first time Samsung Display also signed a contract to supply 8-inch LCD for navigation in 2011.
