Plug-in share out of overall volume actually hit a new record and the hydrogen fuel cell model is "booming."
April 2020 brought a significant 26.7% decrease (year-over-year) of Hyundai car sales globally, but against all odds, the plug-in segment basically maintained its volume.
The South Korean manufacturer sold 6,646 plug-ins (down 2.4%), which is 5.7% of the total sales (a new record).
Nearly 24,000 sales during the first four months of 2020 is also 1% above the same period of 2019.
