Domestic market sales increased by 12.3% compared to the previous year, recording 53,012 units sold. Sales increased mainly due to strong demand in new products such as Grandeur (sold as Azera in some markets), Sonata sedans and Kona small SUV despite reduced working days due to national holidays in Korea compare to the year before.
