The world's fifth-biggest automaker, along with
Kia Motors <000270.KS>, aims to sell 63,000 redesigned Sonatas
in Korea and 165,000 overseas this year, it said in statement on
Monday.
Next year, Hyundai is targeting global sales of 338,000 Sonata
sedans — 89,000 in Korea and 249,000 overseas.
Hyundai launched the mid-sized sedan in South Korea on Monday in
the model's first makeover in nearly five years. The car will
make its U.S. debut at the New York auto show next month, before
going on sale in the United States.
