Among the Hyundai equipment models purchased from the company’s CONEXPO exhibit by several of its dealers was the Hyundai HL975 wheel loader purchased by MECOM, a dealership serving Northern California.

Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas, Inc., today said it sold to six of its dealerships 15 of the 19 pieces of construction equipment it had displayed in its exhibit at the recent ConExpo-Con/AGG exposition in Las Vegas.

Dealers that purchased Hyundai construction machines at ConExpo-Con/AGG are MECOM Equipment, serving Northern California; MESCO, Inc., North Salt Lake, Utah; Rueter's, Carroll, Iowa; Four Seasons Equipment, Inc. (FSEI), Houston; Yes Equipment and Services (YES), Milwaukee, Wis., and Heavy Equipment Rental & Sales (HES), Covina, Calif.

“It's very unusual for a major equipment OEM like Hyundai to sell so much of its CONEXPO display inventory directly from the show floor,” said Corey Rogers, marketing manager, Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas. “The fact that six dealerships decided at the show to buy these units demonstrates their confidence in our company and products. And we believe these sales provide testimony to the growing demand that our dealers are experiencing for Hyundai's new generation of excavators, wheel loaders and compaction rollers.”

MECOM purchased two of the five Hyundai HL900 series wheel loaders on display at CONEXPO – the newly introduced Hyundai HL975 and the HL960 models.

MESCO bought both compaction roller models that Hyundai displayed – the single-roller HR110C model and the new tandem-drum HR26T-9 model.

Other machines purchased from the Hyundai exhibit were the Hyundai HL940XT wheel loader bought by Rueter's, the HX300L excavator acquired by FSEI, and the HL980 wheel loader purchased by YES.

Hyundai earlier reported the sale of eight Hyundai excavators from its CONEXPO display to HES.

Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas' North American dealer network includes more than 70 dealerships operating more than 170 locations offering sales, service, and parts for the full line of Hyundai excavators, wheel loaders, compaction rollers and other construction equipment.
