For the third time in six years Hyundai has been awarded the title of ‘Best Carmaker of the Year’ at the annual Motor Trader awards.

Hyundai previously won the Carmaker of the Year award in both 2010 and 2011, and the brand’s customer service and dealer satisfaction, as well as its refreshed product range, has impressed the judging panel again this time around. Hyundai sold just over 82,000 units in the UK last year, a record figure for the company and an increase of 25 per cent compared to 2010. Hyundai have stated their goal of reaching 100,000 UK sales annually as part of plan to break into the top five best-selling car brands. This year has seen the new i20, i20, i30, i30 Turbo, and i40 all go on sale, and with the all-new Tucson joining the range in September Hyundai are currently in the process of revamping their UK dealer network.

Motor Trader’s editor Curtis Hutchinson said, “For the third time in six years, Hyundai Motor UK has won Motor Trader’s Carmaker of the Year Award in recognition of its sales success, desirable new models, focus on customer care and its close and profitable relationships with its dealer network. Hyundai’s expanded model range covers all the key market sectors and is one of the freshest looking line-ups in UK showrooms and the brand’s results speak for themselves.”
