Domestic trucks first landed in Korea market
It has been reported that Daewoo Automobile Marketing Co., Ltd. is set to bring small and medium-sized cargo trucks, weighing less than 8 tons, from China into the South Korean market for sale. This marks a significant milestone, as it will be the first time Chinese-made trucks are officially available in South Korea, drawing considerable attention from major local manufacturers such as Hyundai, Kia, and Tata Daewoo.
According to a recent announcement by Daewoo Automobile Marketing, they have entered into negotiations with Chongqing-based Qingling Automobile Co., Ltd. to import 2.5-ton cargo trucks for sale in South Korea. Notably, Qingling Automobile is a joint venture between Chinese and Japanese partners, with Isuzu Corporation of Japan playing a key role. As a result, these 2.5-ton trucks are equipped with high-quality engines and transmissions provided by Isuzu, a global leader in automotive technology. The reliability and performance of Isuzu components have long been recognized worldwide, ensuring that the trucks meet international quality standards.
Currently, Hyundai Motor holds a dominant position in the South Korean market for 2.5-ton light trucks. However, Chinese imports are expected to offer a more cost-effective alternative, with prices estimated to be 10% to 20% lower than those of Hyundai models. This competitive pricing could significantly boost the appeal of Chinese trucks among South Korean consumers and businesses.
Daewoo Automobile Marketing is reportedly in the process of obtaining an import license from the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport. If approved, the company plans to start importing Chinese vehicles at the beginning of next year. Should this initiative succeed, Daewoo may expand its efforts to bring more small and medium-sized cargo trucks from China to the South Korean market in the future. This move could potentially reshape the commercial vehicle landscape in South Korea and open new opportunities for Chinese automakers.
