Hyundai Motor has received a total of 2,100 orders for its newly launched Genesis G70 sports sedan in the first day of sales on Wednesday, the company said Thursday.

This is around 42 percent of this year’s sales target of 5,000 units, and threefold the average monthly sales of other European rivals last year in premium vehicle market.

The sales target for the overseas car market, however, remained undisclosed by the company.
