Seoul, March 2 (SocialNews.XYZ) South Korea's top automaker Hyundai Motor said on Saturday that it recorded a 6 percent increase in its sales in the United States last month.
It sold a total of 60,341 units in the world's largest auto market last month, compared with sales of 57,044 units a year earlier.
