[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] Renault Samsung Motors announced on the 9th that it is recruiting the second round of recipients for this year's 'Busan Youth Dream Car' project, which supports young people employed at small and medium-sized enterprises in Busan with the electric vehicle SM3 Z.E.


The Busan Youth Dream Car support project provides the Renault Samsung electric vehicle SM3 Z.E. for two years to young people newly employed at small and medium-sized enterprises located in Gangseo-gu and Gijang-gun, Busan, areas with limited public transportation. Busan City expects this initiative to improve commuting conditions for young workers in industrial complexes by subsidizing part of the vehicle rental fee, thereby alleviating labor shortages in small and medium-sized enterprises and increasing the adoption of electric vehicles.


Busan City has increased the number of recipients from 100 annually to 130 this year and selected 64 recipients in the first round earlier this year. The second round will recruit 66 recipients, with the application period open until midnight on July 3.


Applicants must be young workers aged between 21 and 39, employed at small and medium-sized enterprises in Gangseo-gu or Gijang-gun, Busan, who have been newly employed (or are scheduled to be employed) within one year from the application announcement date and have held a driver's license for more than one year. Final recipients will be selected based on evaluations of income level, commuting distance, and the number of employees at the workplace.


A Busan City official stated, "Since this project is implemented to encourage youth employment in small and medium-sized enterprises within industrial complexes and to resolve commuting difficulties, we hope many young people will participate and benefit from it."
