Startup Delay: Hyundai's battery plant in Georgia faces a 2-3 month delay in startup due to an immigration raid that resulted in the arrest of about 475 workers, primarily South Korean nationals.
Impact on Operations: The raid, part of a significant enforcement operation by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, has led Hyundai to source batteries from other facilities while awaiting the plant's operational launch.
