About

Hyundai Motor Company was founded in 1967 in Seoul, South Korea, by Chung Ju-yung and has grown into one of the world's largest automotive manufacturers, ranking third globally by vehicle sales. From its origins as a budget-focused automaker producing affordable, practical vehicles for emerging markets, Hyundai has transformed over the past two decades into a technology-forward brand competing directly with European and Japanese premium manufacturers. Its mission centers on delivering smart mobility solutions for a sustainable future.\n\nHyundai's product lineup spans mass-market sedans, SUVs, and commercial vehicles, alongside its premium Genesis brand and the Ioniq dedicated EV lineup. The Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6, and Ioniq 7 have emerged as critically acclaimed electric vehicles, with the Ioniq 5 winning the World Car of the Year award. Hyundai is also investing heavily in hydrogen fuel cell technology, autonomous driving, and robotics through subsidiaries including Boston Dynamics. Its vehicles are sold in over 200 countries through a network of more than 6,000 dealerships.\n\nHyundai reported revenue of KRW 175.2 trillion in 2024, a 7.7% year-over-year increase, with Q4 2024 revenue of KRW 46.62T (+11.9%). The company sold 4.14M vehicles globally in 2024.

Digital Retail for Dealers

Digital retail and financing platform enabling car dealers to sell online end-to-end. SF-based; raised $85M.

About

AutoFi is a digital retail platform for automotive dealerships headquartered in San Francisco, California. Founded in 2015 and having raised $85M in funding, AutoFi enables franchise dealers and OEM programs to offer a complete online car-buying experience—including deal structuring, F&I product presentation, and lender financing integration—directly on the dealership's website. AutoFi's platform bridges the gap between consumer online research and the in-store purchase transaction, allowing buyers to configure a deal, explore finance options, and submit a credit application before ever visiting the physical showroom. The company's lender network and F&I integration capabilities are central to its value proposition.\n\nAutoFi's platform integrates with a wide range of automotive lenders, enabling real-time financing offers to be presented to consumers during the online shopping experience. Dealers can configure which lenders, F&I products, and deal parameters are surfaced, maintaining control over their gross margins while providing transparency to the consumer. AutoFi also supports a dealership showroom mode, where sales staff use the same platform on a tablet or desktop to complete the deal-building and financing process in person, providing a consistent workflow regardless of where the transaction begins. The platform integrates with DMS systems and existing dealer CRM tools.\n\nAutoFi competes with Roadster, Darwin Automotive, and dealer website providers that have built digital retailing modules. Its emphasis on real lender integration and F&I workflow—rather than just online deal-building tools—distinguishes it in a market where many digital retail platforms fall short at the financing step. For dealers seeking to modernize the financing and F&I presentation experience for both online and in-store customers, AutoFi offers a focused solution addressing one of the most complex and highest-margin steps in the vehicle purchase process.
