The Koreans are eyeing the global “green car” market. Its government is in the process of finalising its blueprint to outline strategies for the Korean auto industry to achieve a “top-four” global status in the emerging field of environment-friendly cars.
Korea aims to by 2015 sit among the world’s top four makers of eco-friendly cars, including hybrid, electric and other vehicles based on alternative drive technology, according to the Korea Times.
Korea’s Ministry of Knowledge Economy launched a forum on the green car strategies on Tuesday, attended by more than 500 government officials, auto industry representatives and independent experts.
