Hyundai Motor Company announced that it will launch the chassis cab and special high-top models of its electrification business platform 'ST1' on the 25th.


Following the launch of the logistics-specialized models Cargo and Cargo Refrigerated of ST1 in April, Hyundai has now completed the entire ST1 lineup with the release of these new models.


The ST1 chassis cab is Hyundai's first electrified chassis cab model for small commercial vehicles, consisting only of the vehicle's frame chassis and cab (passenger compartment). Notably, there is no cargo bed behind the cab, allowing for the production of various special-purpose models tailored to demand. The ST1 special high-top is a model specialized for logistics and delivery businesses by mounting a cargo bed on the chassis cab, offering improved economy by lowering the price compared to the ST1 Cargo and increasing cargo capacity.


Hyundai equipped the ST1 chassis cab and special high-top with specialized features including Plug & Play technology. Plug & Play is a function that configures separate connectors inside and outside the ST1, enabling customers to efficiently utilize vehicle power, door control, and other functions in special-purpose vehicles according to their business needs.
