South Koreans purchased 413 units of imported commercial vehicles in March, up 18 percent from the 349 a year earlier, according to the Korea Automobile Importers and Distributors Association (KAIDA).
There was increased sales of Volvo, MAN, and Scania trucks on recovering demand amid the extended coronavirus pandemic, KAIDA said.
Imports account for a large share of the domestic commercial vehicle market.
