In the automobile market, SUV is "undoubtedly" the hottest segment in the domestic automobile market. Many models have seen a sharp increase in sales thanks to the "East Wind". However, there are exceptions to this trend, especially Korean SUVs, which are caught in the gap between being oppressed by strong joint venture brands above and fiercely pursued by domestic brands below. Their advantage as the "cheapest joint venture car" has made it difficult to attract domestic consumers. Based on the sales data of vehicle models in May, The Paper counted the six Korean SUV models with the worst monthly sales. It is worth noting that the SUV models that were once the "sales kings" of Korean models, such as KX3, KX5, and ix35, were also not spared, with the highest year-on-year decline reaching nearly 90%. Specifically, the worst-selling model among the six Korean SUVs on the list is the new Santa Fe from Beijing Hyundai. Only 403 units were sold in May, down 60.6% from 1,024 units last year. In the first five months, a total of 4,887 units of the new Santa Fe were sold, down 57% year-on-year. In fact, Santa Fe was once a hot-selling model of Beijing Hyundai. In its most glorious moment in 2013, monthly sales exceeded 8,000 units, and cumulative sales in 2014 exceeded 70,000 units. However, after entering 2015, the performance of the new Santa Fe was shocking, and sales plummeted. The reason is that in the SUV range of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, the new Santa Fe faces too strong competitors, such as Highlander, Edge, Envision, etc., and the new Santa Fe does not have an advantage in terms of body size and brand power. Dongfeng Yueda Kia KX3 Following the new Santa Fe were three SUV models of Dongfeng Yueda Kia - KX3, KX7 and KX5, which sold only 583, 612 and 708 units respectively in May. Among them, the KX3, a small SUV with a high cost performance, saw a month-on-month decline of 90.3% in May. In the first five months, a total of 4,777 units were sold, a year-on-year decline of 84.1%. Beijing Hyundai ix35 In addition to the three SUVs under Dongfeng Yueda Kia, the ix35, once the "sales champion" of Beijing Hyundai, also experienced a dismal May. Data showed that Beijing Hyundai ix35 sold 817 units in a single month, a year-on-year plunge of 87.8%. In the first five months, a total of 10,249 units were sold, with an average monthly sales of only about 2,000 units.
