According to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, out of 164,813 newly registered vehicles in Korea in March, 41,232 were EVs, resulting in a penetration rate of 25%. This figure represents an approximately 2.2-fold increase compared to the same month last year (18,431 units). As of March, the cumulative sales of EVs reached 1,020,948 units, surpassing the one million mark. Annual sales for this year are projected to reach approximately 400,000 units.

In line with this trend, Chaebi will launch an exclusive subscription product in May for new Hyundai Motor customers. The program is designed to ensure that all customers who take delivery of a new vehicle in 2026 can benefit, regardless of the delivery date. For a monthly subscription fee of either 19,900 won or 9,900 won, customers can use Chaebi’s nationwide ultra-fast and fast charging network at exceptional rates for the remainder of 2026.

Key benefits include: ▲ a discounted rate of 299 won per kWh when using Chaebi and roaming partner charging stations; ▲ a 10% discount on Chaebi credit purchases (for purchases of 10,000 won or more); ▲ and discount coupons for the ChaebiStay premium hand car wash service. The subscription product can be purchased via the subscription menu under My Page in the Chaebi App.

Chaebi operates the multi-purpose charging lifestyle space ChaebiStay at seven major hubs in Seoul and the metropolitan area, including Gangnam Seocho, Seongsu, Hongdae, Dunchon, Sinwol, Mapo Seongsan, and Anyang Pyeongchon. Subscription customers can enjoy a package of benefits at ChaebiStay, including charging discounts, credit discounts, and premium hand car wash services.

Chaebi CEO Choi Younghoon stated, “This partnership marks the beginning of a new standard in EV charging experiences, as Hyundai Motor and Chaebi join forces,” adding, “With Hyundai Motor, our best partner, we will do our utmost to ensure that EV customers enjoy a richer experience from charging to daily life.”
