Hyundai have seen the sales rate of its new Hyundai i30 exceeding expectations, no doubt driven by positive PR and its 0% finance offer.
However, the supply chain for certain models now appears to be overstretched and Hyundai are now unable to supply to keep up with demand. The i30 models effected are the 1.4 and 1.6 diesel Comfort models which are entry level derivatives. Also effected are the 1.4 and 1.6 diesel Style.
The supply situation is bound to frustrate its dealer network especially with less than a week to go until the new registration. However its not all bad news.
The focus now will be to sell the higher specification models from stock and in order to do that Hyundai have announced 4 years 0% finance with a 20% deposit.
The offer is applies to the following i30 derivatives:
- 1.6 Petrol Style & Premium manuals
- 1.6 Diesel Premium (manuals and auto)
- All 2.0 Diesel models
The extension of the 0% finance offer over 4 years will allow customers to purchase higher specification i30 models at lower monthly payments. The offer ends 31st March 2008
