"Hyundai sold 88,523 vehicles in August, the vast majority of them internal combustion engine models. The Elantra, Palisade and Tucson were by far its best-selling vehicles last month. But EVs and hybrids accounted for 32% of the retail sales mix. And after a sluggish first half of the year, Hyundai's EV sales rebounded last month, growing 72% year-over-year. The Ioniq 5 continued to be the star of the show, posting a 61% year-over-year growth with 7,773 units sold."
"Through August, Hyundai sold nearly 33,000 units of its electric crossover, which now gets a Tesla-style North American Charging Standard (NACS) right from the factory for seamless Supercharger access. The model itself is more appealing than ever, with an off-road XRT trim and more features. Sales of the Ioniq 6 grew 30% to 1,047 units, whereas the Ioniq 9 three-row electric SUV found 1,106 buyers last month."
