Hyundai targets return to fourth spot in sales chart

Hyundai has set itself the goal to return to fourth position (in terms of market share) in the combined passenger and light commercial vehicle market, says Hyundai Automotive South Africa (Hyundai SA) sales and operations director Stanley Anderson. The local importer has fallen from fourth position last year, to sixth place for the year-to-end May, and is now behind Toyota, Suzuki, Volkswagen, Ford and Nissan, having sold roughly 1 900 units fewer in the first five months of the year than over the same period last year.
