Hyundai Motors has been paving its way into web3 in recent months, outperforming most of its competitors. After the big promise to become the first automaker to create the global NFT-focused community, Motors Hyundai keeps its word.
Soon after the launch of the inaugural Hyundai x Meta Kongs NFT collection, the car brand came up with its new exclusive endeavor, dubbed Metamobility Universe. In the space, where time and space are transcending, Hyundai releases the Metamobility NFT collection named the Shooting Star, representing the infinite mobility of humans in the metaverse.
On May 9-10th, the 10K Ethereum-based ‘Shooting Star’ NFTs were launched on Hyundai's specifically created NFT website. Although the automaker chose in favor of ETH, the officials promise to adopt a more sustainable blockchain in the shortest possible time.
On May 9th, the 3,000 3D animated Shooting Stars will be distributed among the registered whitelist members with the most active engagement in the Metamobility universe as part of the presale. The next day, May 10th, the general sale of 6,500 Shooting star NFTs will be available to the public on a first-come, first-served basis. Although the Shooting Stars are Ethereum-based NFTs, there will be no gas fee for minters, while the price of 0.15 ETH is stable for both premint and the public sale.
Hyundai Motor’s Metamobility NFTs are dropping according to the Reveal method, with the actual individual NFT images to be revealed later. Thus, all 10K Shooting Stars will morph into something absolutely unique and 'metamobile' by the end of May.
“Starting with our ‘Shooting Star’ NFTs, we are expanding the Hyundai brand experience into the ‘Metamobility universe,’ creating unique opportunities for our NFT community members to join in the fun. We plan to launch more unique NFTs based on the ‘Metamobility universe’ concept and introduce more member benefits to expand the community going forward. We welcome everyone to be part of our experimental journey,” Thomas Schemera, Hyundai Motor’s Global Chief Marketing Officer and Head of Customer Experience Division, commented on the NFT launch.
With over 87K followers on Twitter and about 130K active users in Discord, Hyundai has managed to become the first automaker to build a fast-growing active community brought together around NFTs. Join the presale now, as the number of spots is extremely limited, regarding the number of those willing to own them!
