Things are going from bad to worse for Korea s three smaller, struggling automakers Ssangyong, GM Korea and Renault Samsung.
According to the Korea Automobile Manufacturers Association on Sunday, Hyundai sold 47,059 cars and Kia 37,045 in January to rank an unassailable first and second. But they were followed by foreign carmakers, with Mercedes-Benz in third with 5,918 cars and BMW in fourth with 5,717 cars.
