Ssangyong Motor Co., the South Korean unit of China's Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp., said Monday its vehicle sales last month nosedived 36.1 per cent from a year earlier, hit by a production stoppage to adjust output amid sluggish demand.
 
Last month, Ssangyong sold a total of 7,302 vehicles with domestic sales plunging 47.1 per cent to 2,805 units and exports, including kits, falling 26.5 per cent to 4,497, the company said.
