Ssangyong Motor's auto sales plunge 72.4 pct in August
SEOUL, Sept. 1 (Yonhap) -- Ssangyong Motor Co., the South Korean carmaker under bankruptcy protection, said Tuesday its auto sales dived 72.4 percent last month from a year ago, as the company reeled from a strike that halted production for more than two months.
Ssangyong sold 2,012 vehicles last month with domestic sales plunging 66.5
percent to 940 units and exports plummeting 76.2 percent to 1,072 units, the
company said in a regulatory filing.
Ssangyong, the smallest carmaker in South Korea, resumed production on Aug. 13
after 77 days of a sometimes violent strike by fired workers.
