SYMC exported a total of 40,000 units of vehicles to Russia until 2008 since it had signed an export contract with Sollers. The two companies renewed the contract until June 2017 for exporting a total of 160,000 units.
The vehicles bound to Russia takes as much as 24 percent of SYMC's total production, as of October 2010, since the constsruction of Sollers'plant in Vladivostok was completed December last year.
"Russia is our strategic partner that holds a pivotal role in SYMC's global strategy", commented Lee Yoo-il, one of SYMC's legal trustees. "The full-fledged launch of Korando will increase the sales in the market as well as consolidate our long-term relationship with our partner," he added.
