Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA) is Hyundai Motor Group’s first dedicated mass-production Electric Vehicle plant. The all-new manufacturing facility located just outside of Savannah, Georgia will boast a highly-connected, automated, and flexible manufacturing system where all processes of production—order collection, procurement, logistics and production—will be optimized utilizing AI and data. The innovative manufacturing system is being designed to create a human-centered work environment with robots assisting human workers to build more than 300,000 vehicles per year including Hyundai's luxury brand Genesis.
At HMGMA, we refer to our facility as the Metaplant and we refer to our employees as Meta Pros.
What is a Metaplant?
What we are building in Bryan County, GA is not a traditional automotive manufacturing facility. We are manufacturing only electric vehicles in a plant that will exemplify our brand pillars - Sustainable, Innovative and Humane – while being integral to the future of mobility.
In science, the prefix “meta” can mean transformation or transcending. Using those definitions, the Metaplant will transform the definition of what an automotive plant is and will transcend its Meta Pros’ perception of what working in a manufacturing facility can be.

Alton Thompson
Paint Shop Group Leader Decades of experience in automotive industry
I just wanted to be a part of something new, something fresh, something that was ongoing. I've got 30 years’ experience in gas vehicles, and I just wanted the opportunity to go electric and see what that was all about. It actually means a lot to me. I'm very honored to be able to develop and not just come in and be the group leader. I really like developing young minds.
