Hyundai Motor sold 307,998 vehicles globally in September, down 16% from a year earlier but up 5.5% from August after production was disrupted by a union strike. Fewer business days during the Chuseok holiday and delayed purchases ahead of new-model launches weighed on sales. Domestic deliveries fell 25.7% to 49,022 units, while overseas sales declined 13.9% to 258,976. Hyundai said it will seek to expand sales with new vehicles including the all-new Tucson. Sales for the first nine months fell 7% to 2,886,763 vehicles, with domestic sales down 16.3% to 448,181 and overseas sales down 5.1% to 2,438,582.
