Genesis Melintasi Pengeluaran 500,000 Unit

Marque mewah Korea Genesis wujud hanya sejak 2015, tetapi sudah menjual 500,000 unit.

Tidak lama dahulu, Genesis hanyalah nama kenderaan paling mewah Hyundai. Tetapi pada bulan November 2015, syarikat itu membuat langkah berani untuk memulakan sebuah barisan serba baru dengan pelbagai kereta mewah menggunakan nama yang sama. Dalam masa kurang dari 6 tahun, syarikat melaporkan bahawa ia telah menjual unit ke-500.000 di serata dunia.

Tahun pertama jualannya pada tahun 2016 menyaksikan jenama tersebut menjual 65,586 unit di serata dunia. Ini meningkat menjadi purata 80,000 unit setiap tahun antara 2017 dan 2019. Pada tahun 2020, walaupun dengan keadaan dunia berwabak, jenama itu mencapai 128,365 unit. Ini berkat pelancaran SUV pertamanya, GV80.

Kami sebenarnya berpeluang up close and personal dengan GV80 di Malaysia.

Inilah siaran media Genesis dengan lebih maklumat.
