    ============================================================================== This paper traces the new product development of Hyundai Motor Company, Korea, which, since its foundation in 1967, has maintained the self reliance strategy, particularly in new product development. Business strategy of Hyundai contrasts sharply with other auto makers in developing countries as well as to other Korean makers. In spite of a late entrance to the auto business, this unique strategy has led Hyundai to becoming a market leader in Korea and to becoming the thirteenth producer in the world-recording an output of over one million in 1994.
