[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] SsangYong Motor announced on the 1st that it sold 8,504 units last month, driven by the sales growth of improved models such as the The New Rexton Sports & Khan.

Domestic sales recorded 5,724 units. Domestic sales exceeded 5,000 units for the first time in five months since January, marking a three-month consecutive increase since April, rising 15.5% compared to the previous month.

In particular, The New Rexton Sports & Khan, which still has about 4,000 units of undelivered inventory, led the domestic sales growth with a 25.6% increase in sales compared to the previous month, showing three consecutive months of sales growth since its launch in April.

Exports, which recorded 2,780 units, also increased sharply by more than six times compared to the same month last year, supported by the sales growth of The New Rexton Sports & Khan.

SsangYong Motor emphasized that since the Rexton Sports was selected as the best pickup by a British automotive magazine in June and received favorable reviews, it plans to continue growth momentum through active local marketing along with expanding launches into major overseas markets such as the UK, Chile, and Australia.

In addition to the continuous release of improved models, SsangYong Motor has been mass-producing the electric vehicle Korando e-Motion since last month and is accelerating new car development for the future by unveiling sketch images of the mid-size SUV J100 (project name), scheduled for release in 2022.

A SsangYong Motor official said, “Sales are recovering due to favorable reviews of the improved models,” adding, “With the passage of the self-rescue plan, we have secured momentum for successful M&A promotion, and we will continue to expand global sales by establishing a normal line operation system.”
