Hyundai Ioniq BEV U.S. Sales More Than Doubled In October 2023
Hyundai Motor America reported 60,805 vehicle sales in the United States in October, which is the best October ever, although just 0.3 percent better than a year ago. The year-to-date sales result for Hyundai is 655,952 units (up 11 percent year-over-year).
The most important thing for us is the all-electric car sales, which increase quite quickly. Last month, sales of the Hyundai E-GMP-based all-electric cars – Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 – amounted to 2,979 and 1,239 respectively for a total of 4,218. That’s a 167 percent increase year-over-year.
The share of E-GMP BEVs out of Hyundai’s total volume improved to 6.9 percent, compared to 2.6 percent in October 2022.
On top of that comes sales of Hyundai Kona Electric (for which numbers are not available because it’s counted together with the internal combustion engine Kona) and a few plug-in hybrid models (Santa Fe PHEV and Tucson PHEV) as well as the hydrogen fuel cell Nexo model.
