Invited overseas dealers and media from 31 countries to Türkiye for Musso global launch and test drive event.
Held launch and test drive event for Actyon Hybrid in Germany.
Chairman Jea Sun Kwak met with Vietnam KD partner Kim Long Motors to inspect facilities and discuss cooperation.
“As exports continue to recover, we maintained growth momentum with a 6.5% increase year-on-year and a 4.7% increase on a cumulative basis. Since Musso received positive feedback not only in the domestic market but also at the global launch event last month, we will further increase sales volumes by expanding launches across export markets and strengthening cooperation with local distributors.”
Why this matters
The sales growth, especially in exports, signals KGM's expanding global footprint as it launches models like the Musso and Torres EVX in international markets, offsetting a slight domestic decline.
