Hyundai Motor's Eco-Friendly Vehicle Sales Surge 399% in the US
[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Hyundai Motor Company has significantly increased its sales of eco-friendly vehicles in the United States.
According to Hyundai Motor America (HMA) on the 5th, Hyundai's retail sales of eco-friendly vehicles last month surged by 399% compared to the same period last year.
This was due to a substantial increase in sales of electric vehicles, hybrids, and hydrogen cars such as Kona, Ioniq, and Nexo.
Hyundai plans to actively target the local electric vehicle market by launching the dedicated electric vehicle Ioniq 5 in the U.S. market in the near future.
Sales of the luxury Genesis brand also increased significantly. According to Hyundai, 5,180 Genesis vehicles were sold in the U.S. last month, a 312.1% increase compared to the same period last year.
This is the first time monthly sales have exceeded 5,000 units, breaking sales records for three consecutive months since May.
