Celebrating and supporting football around the world
Official FIFA sponsor since 1999
Hyundai began its alliance with FIFA in 1999 and looks forward to maintaining its role as a top-tier sponsor of FIFA as the Official Automotive Partner until 2022. This sponsorship package includes comprehensive rights for all FIFA competitions, including two more editions of the FIFA World Cup™, the FIFA Women's World Cup™, the FIFA U-20 and U-17 World Cups, the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, the FIFA Interactive World Cup, the FIFA Futsal World Cup as well as the FIFA Confederations Cup.
‘Be There With Hyundai’
Since 2006, the ‘Be There with Hyundai’ competition has given football fans the chance to express their passion by creating slogans for their national teams – and to submit them for an online competition. The winning slogans for 2018 – chosen by public vote – were displayed on the 32 team buses at FIFA World Cup Russia™. The FIFA World Cup™ in Russia is the fourth such tournament where fans have had the opportunity to get close to the teams and make their voice heard in this most unique of ways.

Transportation is critical to the successful staging of an international event like
the FIFA World Cup™. As the Official Automotive Partner, Hyundai Motor supplied the 530-strong fleet of vehicles to transport the national football teams, referees, officials and delegates during the international tournament. Models included the Santa Fe, Tucson, and the 8-seater Starex (H-1). Without a large fleet of modern vehicles that offer reliability, comfort and safety, the smooth operation of an event of such mammoth scale is unimaginable.
