Press Release
Summary
Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation have unveiled 'Plasma Care UVC,' the world's first in-vehicle sanitization technology that uses Far-UVC light (200–230 nm range) to sanitize the vehicle cabin and reduce odors, even while passengers are present. Unlike conventional UV sterilization which can harm skin and eyes, this compact plasma-based system uses a safer wavelength of far-ultraviolet C light to reduce bacteria and odor-causing microorganisms in the cabin environment.
