Today, on March 12, 2024, TC Group has announced the sales results of Hyundai brand for February 2024. In the past month, Vietnamese people purchased a total of 2,033 Hyundai cars, a decrease of 43% compared to the previous month. February 2024 was during the Tet holiday period, so it is not surprising that Hyundai car sales saw a significant decline.

The second best-selling Hyundai model is the Grand i10, with a sales figure of 263 units, a decrease of 45.2%. Meanwhile, the third position belongs to Hyundai Creta with a 42.3% decrease in sales to 238 units.
Creta is also the only Hyundai model to have sales of over 200 units in February. Other popular Hyundai models had disappointing sales figures, such as Venue (147 units), Santa Fe (132 units), Custin (127 units), and Tucson (117 units).
In addition, there were Hyundai models with sales figures below 100 units, including Elantra (76 units), Stargazer (55 units), and Palisade (47 units). Commercial vehicles from Hyundai achieved a sales figure of 466 units in February 2024, a 30.2% decrease.
