The Hybrid Trend Dominates... Renault Korea Sells 6,199 Units in April

Both Domestic and Export Sales Slow Down,
Filant Drives Overall Performance

Renault Korea (CEO Nicolas Paris) recorded sales of approximately 6,000 units in April.

Renault Korea announced on the 4th that it sold a total of 6,199 vehicles in April, with 4,025 units sold domestically and 2,174 units exported.

The strong performance in the domestic market was driven by the launch of new models. The mid-to-large crossover "Filant" led the way with 2,139 units, followed by "Grand Koleos" with 1,550 units, and "Arkana" with 336 units.

The share of hybrid vehicles was particularly notable, accounting for 87.6% of total domestic sales. The Filant was sold exclusively as a hybrid model, and the Grand Koleos was also predominantly sold as a hybrid.

Both domestic and export sales showed a temporary slowdown. The company attributed this to external factors such as rising oil prices impacting demand. Instead, Renault Korea plans to expand customer engagement promotions such as roadshows from May to boost sales recovery.

Exports totaled 2,174 units, consisting of 894 units of Grand Koleos, 260 units of Arkana, and 1,020 units of Polestar 4. Renault Korea stated that it will adjust production and shipping schedules in light of global geopolitical uncertainties.

The new Filant is a flagship model that combines the features of a sedan and an SUV. Equipped with a dual-motor hybrid system and advanced safety and connectivity features, it is being positioned to aggressively target the market.
