He also retains his current role as Chief Creative Officer (CCO), leading all design creatives aspects for the Hyundai Motor Group brands including future mobility, AAM and Robotics.
Mr Donckerwolke said: “I am confident the new organisation will enable the Group to continue to lead the way in determining the future of the global mobility industry.”
