As a result, the proportion of these ultra-high-priced cars in the monthly sales of imported cars expanded from 8.95 percent in January to 10.63 percent in April.
The number of newly registered imported cars priced between 100 million won and 150 million won increased from 2,872 units in January to 3,025 units in February and 3,213 units in March but decreased to 2,815 units in April.
