South Korea Asian Economy：June 12, 2023
Korea Hyundai, “17 units sold in the Japanese market in May”.
It sold 500 units in the first six months, showing signs of success.
It’s been half a year since then, and at the moment it’s a poor result.
They lost in a head-to-head match with China’s BYD.
Sales volume in Japan:
Hyundai Motor sold 199 units in Japan from January to May this year, including 17 units last month.
It is difficult to capture the Japanese market. It is a result that clearly shows the characteristics.
Notable BYD sales volume:
BYD sold 440 units in Japan from January to May this year, including 141 units last month.
Tesla sold 1,900 units from January to May this year.
Nissan sold about 25,000 units during the same period.
From a Korean netizen:
In Japan, “even Samsung’s smartphones can’t be sold”
“Hyundai cars don’t suit Japanese tastes”
Even Japanese manufacturers can’t sell anything other than light cars.
We should study the Japanese market more.
And so on.
