LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — uCloudlink Group Inc. (NASDAQ: UCL), a global leader in mobile connection technology, today unveiled its visionary PetPogo ecosystem at CES 2026. Dedicated to eliminating the “Pet People Divide,” uCloudlink is moving beyond simple tracking to create a comprehensive “Safety-Wellness-Emotional Connection” loop.

At the center of this launch are two revolutionary devices: PetPhone, the ultimate wearable for two-way communication, and the all-new PetCam, offering an immersive perspective into a pet’s life.

PetPhone: Redefining Connection – PetPhone leads the lineup as the industry’s first wearable smartphone for pets. Moving beyond the limitations of traditional trackers, PetPhone enables real-time, Two-Way Call & Care, allowing owners to speak directly to their pets to soothe separation anxiety from anywhere in the world. Supported by AI Wellness Monitoring and Precision Positioning, PetPhone transforms passive monitoring into active, voice-based companionship.

PetCam: See the World Through Their Eyes – Complementing the audio connection is the new PetCam, a 25g lightweight wearable camera designed to serve as both an Action Cam and a Smart Monitor. It captures both an immersive 1st-person Point of View (POV) for adventures and a 3rd-person view for monitoring. Some features include:

Visual Bonding: PetCam allows owners to see their pet’s daily adventures firsthand, bridging the visual gap when they are apart.

Privacy & Care: Designed with a focus on “care” rather than “surveillance,” PetCam integrates with the PetPogo app to share moments of joy without compromising privacy. It empowers owners to monitor their pets’ care, tracking daily behavior to better understand their pets’ lives.

The Complete Link: When paired with PetPhone (or the PetPhone C+ Suite), owners can now “Listen, Speak, and See,” initiating two-way communication for proactive care and in-depth bonding. This creates a complete sensory bridge that makes pets feel like true family members, even remotely.

“We believe connection is a fundamental right for every family member, including our pets,” said Jeff Chen, the CEO and Co-Founder of uCloudlink. “By combining PetPhone’s voice capabilities with PetCam’s visual insights, we are closing the Pet People Divide, so no pet ever feels alone.”

Empowering this ecosystem is uCloudlink’s patented CloudSIM technology. As a SIM-card-free solution, it enables PetPhone to connect seamlessly to a global network covering 200+ countries supported by 390+ carriers. With PetPogo, you can talk, watch, and listen wherever you are, anytime.

About uCloudlink Group Inc. (NASDAQ: UCL) uCloudlink is the world’s first and leading mobile data traffic sharing marketplace, providing better mobile data connectivity services to users in over 200 countries and regions. Through its proprietary Cloud SIM technology, uCloudlink empowers users and businesses to stay connected with the best available network at all times.

TCL also demonstrated Dolby Vision 2, the next generation of Dolby Vision, designed to deliver exceptional visual experiences through Content Intelligence, cinematic detail, and viewing environment awareness. Dolby Vision 2 is planned to be rolled out to TCL’s X and C TV lineups in 2026 via OTA updates.

In eye-care technology, the TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro smartphone, powered by NXTPAPER 4.0, delivers all-day eye comfort across all scenarios to ease eye strain in today’s fast-paced digital environment. It’s dedicated NXTPAPER Key enables seamless switching between three distinct viewing modes. Expanding its eye–care ecosystem, the TCL Note A1 NXTPAPER eNote tablet integrates AI-driven productivity tools and offers a paper-like reading and writing experience that is ideal for users seeking a more focused and efficient digital workspace. Alongside commercial displays and high-performance monitors, TCL is also unveiling the RayNeo Air 4 Pro — the world’s first HDR10 AR glasses — redefining portable viewing with advanced display technology that delivers exceptional clarity and comfort for both work and entertainment.

Powering the Next Era of Intelligent Living

Beyond display technology, TCL presents a wide range of AI–powered smart home solutions designed to bring greater intelligence to everyday living. These include the TCL FreshIN 3.0 Air Conditioner, the GeniusFresh Refrigerator, the AmeraClassic washer and dryer series, and the TCL AI SuperDrum washer–dryer combo.

• The Flagship seven-seater cements Hyundai as ‘The Master of Space’ with the industry’s most extensive range of seven-seater options by 2026
• ‘Master of Space,’ offering ample legroom in all three rows for both adults and children alike
• The IONIQ 9’s ‘Aerosthetic’ design and “Boat Tail” silhouette, along with Universal Island 2.0 console and relaxation seats, reinforce a sleek aesthetic that turns traffic jams into downtime
• 110.3kWh battery and E-GMP architecture deliver up to 620 km range and 10–80% charging in 24 minutes, allowing drivers to cruise Singapore’s highways and heartlands with ease.
• Remote Smart Parking Assist 2 helps drivers navigate mall carparks, while V2L with multi-charge capabilities keep devices ready during weekend road trips. 
• IONIQ 9 continues the impressive IONIQ Story, 10 years in the making.

SINGAPORE, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hyundai Singapore today announces the upcoming arrival of the IONIQ 9, a vehicle that fundamentally shifts what families can expect from electric mobility. Hyundai’s new flagship EV SUV will set the brand as the ‘Master of Space’, with the largest range of 7-seater options coming into 2026. The IONIQ 9 addresses the final frontier: a spacious, luxury option for the multi-generational household that refuses to compromise on style or range. The IONIQ 9 will be distributed by Komoco Motors Pte Ltd, the official distributor for all Hyundai automobiles since 1986, which also celebrates its 40th year of presence in Singapore.

IONIQ 9 is a three-row SUV that accommodates up to seven occupants, providing impressive space and features that cater to individuals’ needs whilst offering a sense of togetherness — it is truly a ‘Master of Space’. The vehicle features generous space and impressive interior flexibility, with technologically advanced features and a lounge-like atmosphere that encourages connection among passengers.

A Sanctuary in Motion

The IONIQ 9 embodies Hyundai’s philosophy of “Progress for Humanity,” shaping a vehicle that caters directly to Singapore’s culture of providing multi-generational comfort. This principle shifts the interior experience away from a utilitarian “cabin” to a holistic “lounge.” The interior uses elliptical design elements and calming nature-inspired tones to present a calming atmosphere the moment you close the door.

“We’ve seen generations of families come to trust Hyundai over the years, because that’s what Hyundai stands for. The IONIQ 9 is no different — built on trusted technologies and safety standards that have kept our Hyundai families safe for decades,” says Mr Teo Hock Seng, Executive Chairman of Komoco Motors. “This 7 seater doesn’t compromise, you have the space and luxuries for every adventure.”

The interior of the Flagship EV SUV is designed to enhance the quality of living space, and Hyundai’s new 7-seater builds on that idea with the Universal Island 2.0 — a sliding console that moves 190mm backwards, extending the lounge space to second-row passengers and offering easy-to-access controls for climate and seat ventilation. Three-zone climate control and roof-mounted air vents ensure the third row doesn’t feel like a sauna during midday drives.

Relaxation Seats recline with leg rests, making downtime more comfortable when waiting to pick up children from tuition. In tight car parks, the IONIQ 9’s Remote Smart Parking Assist 2 lets you hop out and use your key fob to guide the car into a narrow lot remotely, with support for both perpendicular and parallel parking assistance.

Design

For buyers who refuse to drive a traditional “dad van,” the IONIQ 9 presents itself as a stylish “anti-van” alternative that’s more than just a big box.

Nautical design inspiration and mid-century modern architecture blend to give the flagship electric SUV an “Aerosthetic” look — its “Boat Tail” rear tapers inward to slice through the air, reducing the drag coefficient to 0.259 Cd for better efficiency. Additionally, signature Parametric Pixel lights on the front and rear create a unique digital signature that makes the car instantly recognisable on the roads of Singapore.

The IONIQ Story

Project IONIQ started out as a dedicated Electric Vehicle platform with the first IONIQ Electric car in 2016. In the last 10 years, Hyundai has launched the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6 – both triple winners at the World Car of the Year Awards in 2022 and 2023, respectively – and the IONIQ 5 N, a multi-award-winning high-performance car under the Hyundai N brand, even getting a nod of approval from Porsche. In 2025, Hyundai unveiled the Concept THREE under the IONIQ lineup and showcased the all-new IONIQ 6 N to follow in the IONIQ 5 N’s footsteps.

The decade of IONIQ has also seen Hyundai’s extensive efforts outside of just developing technologies for cars, under the guidance of the brand’s mission of ‘Progress for Humanity’.

In 2016, Hyundai launched the IONIQ Forest project to encourage coexistence between humans and the Earth by planting 22,250 air-purifying trees at the Incheon landfill to transform it into a forest and reduce particulate matter in the air.

Expanding to more locations around the world, Hyundai continues to focus on forest restoration and monitoring efforts, involving an IONIQ Drone station and IONIQ vehicles to manage this. In 2025, Hyundai had planted 1 million trees in 13 countries.

For 2026, Hyundai Singapore is proud to celebrate 10 years of IONIQ with the IONIQ 9 as a beacon for the series’ next 10 years. Not only does the IONIQ 9 continue a lineup of efforts that embody Progress for Humanity, but it also helped set the groundwork for a decade of human-centric innovation, progressive design, and sustainability with a soul – true to the IONIQ philosophy.

The Driving Experience

Continuing Hyundai’s commitment to keeping drivers’ eyes on the road and hands on the wheel, the IONIQ 9 follows the same design with intuitive, user-friendly technology, such as the Panoramic Curved Display with a 12.3-inch cluster and a 12.3-inch integrated monitor. The SUV’s start button is integrated into the column-mounted shift-by-wire system for easy access. Regenerative braking with integrated Collision-Avoidance-Assist delivers dependable stopping power, while haptic feedback provides additional safety when reversing.

The IONIQ 9’s refined driving experience is made possible by a host of features that result in its smooth, comfortable ride.

• Suspension Designed for the Electric SUV: MacPherson multi-link front and multi-link rear setup, self-levelling dampers, and hydro-bushing offer a plush ride.
• Frequency-Controlled Dampers: Special dampers further enhance the IONIQ 9’s ride quality by absorbing vibrations while on the road for a smooth journey, regardless of the road conditions.
• Acceleration: Acceleration is progressive, offering a strong initial boost with smooth, relaxing performance at higher speeds.

The Chassis Domain Control Unit elevates the IONIQ 9’s driving dynamics with features such as dynamic torque vectoring for precision handling and lateral wind stability control for smoother highway driving. Between city streets and off-road trails, the Terrain Traction Control System and AI-powered Auto Terrain Mode automatically adapt to any surface for optimal performance.

Entering the IONIQ 9’s cabin is an open invitation to a tranquil ride — triple door seals, acoustic glass, sound-absorbing tyres, and Active Noise Control-Road (ANC-R) technology effectively suppress wind and road noise, particularly at highway speeds.

In addition to noise reduction, ANC-R technology also ensures crystal-clear sound quality in the cabin. The family SUV’s premium BOSE 14-speaker sound system delivers a concert-hall-like experience for passengers, with advanced 5.1-channel surround sound that immerses the cabin in rich, multidimensional audio. Coupled with Hyundai’s e-Active Sound Design (e-ASD) technology, every drive is enriched with a cosy ambience.

IONIQ 9 also offers remarkable towing capabilities. Its intelligent trailer mode optimises range predictions based on trailer weight and maintains a fixed 50:50 front-to-rear motor torque distribution ratio on AWD for optimal performance.

Safety and visibility are core to the IONIQ 9, thanks to the IONIQ signature Parametric Pixel lamps, featuring advanced cube-projection headlights and an intelligent front-lighting system (IFS). This technology enhances nighttime visibility while preventing glare for oncoming traffic, while the full LED combination rear lamps and illuminated door handles ensure maximum visibility in any conditions.

Driving is stress-free with Hyundai Motor’s state-of-the-art Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which work seamlessly to prevent accidents and enhance convenience. These systems include:

• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 (FCA)
• Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
• Safe Exit Warning (SEW)
• Safe Exit Assist (SEA)
• Rear Occupant Alert
• Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA)
• Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
• Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM)
• High Beam Assist (HBA)
• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA)
• Parking Distance Warning (PDW)

Each feature works in tandem with the others to ensure peace of mind on every journey.

Charging and All-Electric Range

• Up to 620 km of range (WLPT est.); all models powered by a 110.3 kWh long-range battery
• Active air flap (AAF) technology delivers ultra-low drag coefficient to just 0.259 Cd
• 10-80% recharge in just 24 minutes using a 350 kW charger; V2L capability included

IONIQ 9 is built on Hyundai Motor’s dedicated E-GMP architecture, featuring an enhanced power electronics (PE) system that gives drivers confidence on any terrain through its optimised gear ratio for hill climbing and an advanced two-stage inverter for improved efficiency.

This innovative platform delivers what matters most to electric SUV owners: exceptional range from its high-capacity battery, a flat floor that maximises interior space for both passengers and luggage, and outstanding safety through its robust body structure engineered for optimal collision protection.

Energy efficiency is further enhanced by smoothing and balancing airflow under the vehicle’s body, as well as achieving reduced wheel and tyre resistance. A new dual-motion active air flap (AAF) system has been applied for the first time, designed to enhance aerodynamic efficiency by allowing cooling air for the drive system and battery to flow through only when necessary. When this level of cooling is not required, the flaps close to minimise air resistance.

Other aerodynamically optimised solutions on the IONIQ 9 include a 3D-shaped underbody cover, aerodynamic wheel designs and hidden antennas.

Hyundai IONIQ 9 full specifications

The new Hyundai IONIQ 9 will be revealed at the Singapore Motorshow, happening at the Suntec City Convention Centre from 8 to 11 January 2026.

Customers can register their interest for an exclusive IONIQ 9 preview at hyundai.com.sg.
