Hyundai Motor America Reports 2017 December and Total Year Sales

Hyundai Brand Highlights

“Hyundai and our dealers closed the year strong and we are one of the few companies to achieve a sales increase in December,” said John Angevine, director, National Sales, Hyundai Motor America. “While our run of eight straight years of annual sales growth came to an end, we improved our SUV mix, reduced our fleet sales and have positioned ourselves for a rebound and quality growth in 2018.”

Also during December, seven Hyundai models earned either an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ (Santa Fe, Santa FE Sport) or Top Safety Pick (Ioniq Hybrid, Elantra, Elantra GT, Sonata, Tucson). Hyundai tied for the most total awards in one of the automotive industry’s most recognized and rigorous vehicle tests.

The new year begins quickly for Hyundai with several significant product introductions in January. At the Consumer Electronics Show, Hyundai will introduce its all-new, next-generation fuel cell vehicle during a press conference on Jan. 8. One week later, at the North American International Auto Show, Hyundai will unveil its all-new Veloster and Veloster Turbo. Both press events will be livestreamed on Hyundai’s YouTube channel.
