Sales by South Korean automakers expanded 3.9 percent on-year in 2014, bolstered by their relatively strong sales at home and abroad despite the overall sluggish economic and market conditions, industry data showed Friday.
The combined annual sales of the five local automakers came to 8.95 million units last year, compared with 8.61 million units tallied a year earlier, according to the data provided by the companies. The total excludes complete knockdown kits shipped abroad for assembly.
