Korean automakers released their sales figures for the month of January.
It was something of a mixed bag.
For details let's turn to our Kim Hyesung.
Korean automakers' car sales for January dropped five percent on-year to 586 thousand units
on sluggish overseas sales.
The country's leading automaker Hyundai Motor... sold a total of around 313-thousand cars in
January, down 7-point-7 percent from the same period last year.
Its domestic sales were strong however,... rising 17-point-five percent thanks to its
Granger sedans and Palisade SUVs,... the latter of which sold a record 59-hundred units for
the month.
Much of the fall was due to sluggish sales abroad,... which slumped 12 percent on-year
to around 250-thousand units in January... mainly due to poor demand in the Chinese market.
Hyundai Motor's affiliate Kia Motors saw its sales tick up slightly,... by 1 percent on-year
to around 209 thousand cars thanks to its Sportage SUVs.
Although its domestic sales dropped, it sold more vehicles abroad,... to the tune of 171-thousand
units, which was a two-percent increase.
Other Korean automakers including Renault Samsung Motors and GM Korea both saw their
sales fall.
Ssangyong Motor on the other hand,... saw its sales soar 12 percent on-year to around
11-thousand units thanks to its Rexton Sports Khan SUVs.
