South Korean automotive and used car market activities

Overview

Automotive companies and platforms in South Korea have engaged in various promotional and service-oriented activities.

Simultaneously, the mobility platform AutoInside initiated its ‘2026 My Car Shopping Festival,’ featuring vehicle giveaways and discount coupons.

Following these promotional efforts, the Auto Inside platform, operated by AutoHands, received the ‘2026 Korea Customer Satisfaction Award’ for the second consecutive year.

Service enhancements include interior sterilization via Cesco Car Care solutions, a six-month or 10,000 km warranty, and a seven-day refund policy for online ‘Home Service’ customers.
