Hyundai and Kia are developing a new in-vehicle sanitation system called Plasma Care UVC. This technology uses far-ultraviolet C (Far-UVC) light to eliminate bacteria and viruses, promising to tackle foul odors at their source. The system operates by emitting UV light in a specific wavelength range, designed to destroy microorganisms without penetrating human skin, making it safer for use even with passengers present.
