Press material

Hyundai Motor has recorded a significant recovery in Europe in the first nine months of 2021, according to the latest data from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA). The automaker’s year-to-date market share rose to 4.2 per cent, up 0.6 percentage points from 2020 in EU, EFTA and UK.

During this period, the company sold 383,429 units across the continent. This corresponds to an increase of 24.2 per cent compared to January-September 2020, outperforming the overall market trend.

Additionally, the number of Hyundai cars produced in Europe rose to 75 per cent of the company’s overall sales. The main sales drivers included TUCSON, i20 and KONA. Other popular models include the company’s future mobility line-up, such as IONIQ 5, which celebrated its world premiere in February.

Hyundai was able to overcome the challenging start to the year. Our supply chain management made it possible for us to gain momentum also throughout the recent months. Thanks to our progressive electrified line-up spearheaded by IONIQ 5, we are outperforming the market trend. With our broad fleet that includes BEVs, FCEVs and hybrid models, Hyundai offers a full range of electrified powertrains that no other manufacturer can offer.

Michael Cole President and CEO at Hyundai Motor Europe

Qualitative growth drives Hyundai’s success

Another key contributor to Hyundai’s success has been the brand’s multiple new product launches in recent years. The company now boasts one of the youngest line-ups in the industry.

In coming years, Hyundai intends to establish itself as one of the top three producers of BEVs globally. With this continued investment in electric vehicles and focus on qualitative growth, the company expects to sustain its position as a leader in future mobility.
