As football fandom continues to evolve, Hyundai Motor has been exploring new ways to connect with fans across different environments and moments — from shared live experiences to more personal, digital-first forms of engagement. Rather than simply branching into new genres, the initiative broadens the football experience beyond physical venues — creating a vibrant space for fans to connect with the sport anytime, anywhere.</p>                            <p><i>&#34;For more than 25 years, football has been a powerful platform for Hyundai to connect with people worldwide. With the 'Hyundai NEXT Cup Tour' in Top Eleven, we are opening a new chapter by translating the energy and strategy of the game into an interactive experience. This collaboration feels native to digital-first audiences and reflects how the next generation engages with the sport they love.&#34;</i> <b>– Sungwon Jee, Executive Vice President and Global Chief Marketing Officer at Hyundai Motor Company</b></p>               <p><i>&#34;Hyundai Motor has, for years, been at the intersection of football and some of the world's most celebrated brands, so welcoming them to the Top Eleven touchline is an exciting milestone. As the game approaches its 16th anniversary of delighting football fans worldwide, bringing this event to life at such a thrilling moment for football, together with Hyundai Motor, reflects Top Eleven's commitment to continuously finding new ways to deliver unique, evergreen football stories for fans.&#34;</i> <b>– Marko Jevtic, Executive Vice President at Nordeus</b></p><p><b>What is the 'Hyundai NEXT Cup Tour'?</b></p><p>'Hyundai NEXT Cup Tour' invites <i>Top Eleven</i> players to manage their club through a series of 10 sequential missions across the world. The virtual tour begins in Indonesia and travels through 10 of Hyundai Motor's key global markets, culminating in the United States, mirroring the brand's story of global growth. This structure allows the brand to deliver high-impact engagement that connects with the game's core loop of strategy, progression and decision-making.</p><p><b>How Does the In-Game Integration Work?</b></p><p>Rather than a one-way advertising exposure, the event seamlessly integrates Hyundai Motor's flagship vehicle models into the player's strategic journey. Each of the 10 tour stops features a locally representative model, with the vehicle's unique selling proposition reinterpreted as an in-game football activity.</p><p>For example, IONIQ 5's ultra-fast charging is framed as keeping a team's condition high during a packed schedule, while INSTER's blend of speed and compactness positions it well for reacting at a moment's notice with velocity and agility. Players who progress through the in-game missions can earn exclusive, limited-edition Hyundai-branded in-game items, including a team jersey and an emblem.</p><p>This initiative reflects Hyundai Motor's commitment to evolving its brand experience for digital natives, carrying the energy, unity and inspiration of sport into the next generation of gaming experiences.</p><p>More information about Hyundai Motor and its products can be found at:<br/>https://www.hyundai.com/worldwide/en/ or Newsroom: Media Hub by Hyundai</p><p>SOURCE Hyundai Motor Company</p><p><img src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://rt.prnewswire.com/rt.gif/query-RGF0ZUlkPTIwMjYwNDIyJk5ld3NJdGVtSWQ9Q040MDgzNSZUcmFuc21pc3Npb25fSWQ9MjAyNjA0MjIxOTMwUFJfTkVXU19VU1BSX19fX19DTjQwODM1?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://rt.prnewswire.com/rt.gif/query-RGF0ZUlkPTIwMjYwNDIyJk5ld3NJdGVtSWQ9Q040MDgzNSZUcmFuc21pc3Npb25fSWQ9MjAyNjA0MjIxOTMwUFJfTkVXU19VU1BSX19fX19DTjQwODM1"/></p></div>       </div></div>
