The performance marked a sharp increase in exports despite a drop in domestic sales due to waiting demand for new cars, up 1.4% month-on-month.
In particular, exports surpassed 6,000 units in three months after exceeding 6,000 units in March (6,275 units) due to increased sales to Europe such as Turkiye, the UK, Spain, and Hungary, with 28% of eco-friendly cars (Tores EVX & HEV, Musso EV).
It also brightened the outlook for this year, up 7.3% from last year, when it recorded its highest performance in a decade compared to the previous year.
KGM is making all-out efforts to increase global market sales, such as expanding new businesses and developing new markets, along with strengthening differentiated marketing activities tailored to each country's characteristics.
On the 13th of last month, the company held a ceremony to celebrate the export shipment of Musso EV and Torres hybrid to target overseas markets, and both models have already received favorable reviews at product introductions such as dealer conferences by country, so export volume is expected to increase further when the global market launch begins in earnest.
Domestic demand fell year-on-year due to waiting demand for new Actian hybrid cars scheduled to be released this month, but domestic demand is also expected to increase sales as Actian Hybrid, which began pre-contracting last month by unveiling key specifications and prices, is drawing keen attention in the market.
The Actian Hybrid is KGM's second hybrid model after Torres, and it has a sophisticated design of an urban SUV that combines practicality, high efficiency fuel efficiency, and driving stability, as well as reasonable price competitiveness.
An official from KGM said, "The rise continues, with exports exceeding 6,000 units thanks to the strengthening of its global market targeting," and added, "As Actian Hybrid is receiving great attention in the domestic market, we will increase sales volume through active global market response such as launching new products in overseas markets and differentiated marketing strategies."
