Kia Edition
Finally a decent month for this asian market, with 76 units sold, 64 of them being Kias and 38 belonging to the new Soul EV, landing this month and going straight to #1 in May.
Looking at the YTD ranking, Kia won the models (Ray EV) and manufacturers leadership, with no intentions of letting it go in the near future.
A final mention for the BMW i3, registering seven units, the little german car is starting to gain traction in South Korea, will it be a relevant player here?
