Despite the severity of the raid and its impact on production schedules, none of the sources provide evidence or official statements indicating that Hyundai plans to close the plant permanently.

The plant is described as a major investment and strategic facility for Hyundai in the U.S., making permanent closure unlikely without further developments. The current information suggests operational disruption rather than shutdown.

Therefore, the claim that the ICE raid "will lead to its closure" overstates what is currently known. The raid has caused significant short-term operational challenges but no confirmed decision or announcement about closing the plant exists.
