SEOUL, January 4 (AJP) - Automaker Hyundai's premium brand Genesis has sold over 1.5 million vehicles in cumulative global sales a decade after its launch.
According to industry sources on Sunday, the automaker reached the milestone in November last year, about 10 years after it rolled out its luxury G90 sedan in 2015.
Genesis was especially popular among customers in Europe and the U.S. It sold over 500,000 units globally by May 2021 and surpassed 1 million in August 2023.
Annual global sales grew from about 201,000 vehicles in 2021 to roughly 230,000 in 2024.
The G80 midsize sedan is Genesis' best-selling model, with 501,517 units sold through November last year, making it the brand's first vehicle to exceed 500,000 in cumulative sales. It is followed by the GV70 with 337,457 units and the GV80 with 322,214. Together, the three models accounted for 77 percent of Genesis' total sales.
Genesis plans to expand its lineup with extended-range electric vehicles and hybrids, aiming for annual global sales of 350,000 by 2030.
