Hyundai's show with more than 3,000 drones

  • Hyundai's show with more than 3,000 drones that broke a Guinness World Record. It was during a welcome event for the luxury vehicle sub-brand Genesis in Shanghai.

Hyundai's luxury car brand, Genesis, celebrated its entry into the competitive Chinese market in style. To do so, they used 3281 drones that managed to "draw" the logo over the illuminated sky of Shanghai and even broke a Guinness record.

The show held on March 29th set a new record for "most unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the air simultaneously", according to a press release distributed by the company.

Hyundai's fleet of robot drones flew in formation and, under different patterns, created the Genesis logo. They also formed in the air the shape of a hand and two of its car models.

The Genesis brand first appeared when Hyundai launched a car with that name in 2004. It was only in 2015 that it was decided that the line deserved its own brand line, so they finally decided to found the subsidiary brand.
The luxury vehicles are developed and designed in Germany, South Korea and the United States. However, all production takes place in the country of origin, where the parent company is based.
