PROFILING HYUNDAI CANADA'S RAPID CANADIAN SALES GROWTH - THE OCTOBER EDITION

By The Good Car Guy     at 11/02/2009 07:58:00 PM
Hyundai is a very actively discussed topic here on GoodCarBadCar.net, especially so since the beginning of 2009 when sales success in North America was nearly the exclusive domain of Korea's biggest automaker. Canada, in particular, has been a breeding ground for Hyundais this year. The full story on Hyundai's Canadian October, its best October ever, is displayed below.

If you're a disgusted automaker's PR rep wondering why Hyundai receives exceptional study, you can go right ahead and grow your sales with this kind of ferocity, too. Then GoodCarBadCar.net profiles your brand, as well.

  2. Honda alwyas knows how to respond: by being Honda, accepting the size of their company and their ability to make money at that level.

  3. @import@hear so you're saying Honda's okay if Hyundai starts beating them badly in North America just like they are in most of the rest of the world? Honda's good with that?
