Hyundai Motor Group has reshuffled some heads of its automotive
parts affiliates and overseas operations following the mileage
overstatement fallout in the US and Canada.  Citing officials,
the Korea Herald said former Hyundai Powertech CEO Jung Myung-
chul had been named as new president of Hyundai Wia, Metia and
Wisco - the three automotive parts and machinery manufacturers
affiliated with the Korean auto giant.  Jung, who studied metal
engineering at Korea University, worked at Hyundai Motor’s
integrated parts development department, Kia Motor’s Slovakian
plant and Hyundai Powertech, an automatic transmission system
developer.  Lim Young-deuk, president of Hyundai’s Alabama
plant, will be the successor alongside Jung as chief of Hyundai
Powertech, while the US factory will be led by Chun Gui-il,
former director of Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Russia.
