… and World Hyundai is.
World Hyundai Matteson just moved to #3 in the Central Region for new Hyundai sales, passing Gerald Hyundai and putting 269 units between us. We’re #2 in Chicago, 8 units from #1, and growing at 11.1% while the median Hyundai dealer in America is down 7.3%. If you’re going to sell new cars, sell them at a store that’s actually climbing.
Every number on this page reflects new Hyundai retail sales only — no used, no fleet, no wholesale. Measured against 130+ Hyundai dealerships across Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Missouri. We entered 2025 ranked #4, just 13 units behind Gerald Hyundai. We’re now 269 units ahead and closing on Elgin for #2.

Gerald Hyundai was 13 units ahead of us going into 2025. They’ve since dropped 92 national rank positions while we climbed 31. The gap is now 269 units in our favor and widening every month. Elgin is 373 units ahead for #2, but they’re flat year-over-year while we’re growing at 11.1%. At current pace, we close that gap within 8 months.
7 of the 9 dealers ranked around us regionally are flat or declining. Napleton’s Valley dropped 52 national positions. D’Arcy dropped 36. Gerald dropped 92. We’re one of the only stores in this competitive set that’s growing, and the ranking reflects it. This isn’t a one-month spike. It’s a multi-year acceleration that’s compounding.
A store’s trajectory directly impacts your paycheck, your career, and your daily experience on the floor.
A store selling 160+ units a month generates significantly more floor traffic, internet leads, and phone ups than a store doing 80. You’re not fighting for opportunities here. They come to you.
Top-ranked dealers get priority allocation on in-demand models. When customers want a Tucson, Palisade, or IONIQ 5, we have inventory. Allocation is earned by volume.
Our ranking gives every salesperson on this floor an advantage before the conversation starts. Being top 4% nationally is proof, not a pitch.
We’re not asking you to resurrect a struggling store. The infrastructure, traffic, and leadership are already producing results.
Fully renovated modern showroom and service center on 7.25 acres. The building matches the performance.
Stores that grow need more people. More finance managers, more team leads, more desk time for top performers. Growth creates career paths that flat stores cannot offer.
We hire from both pools and invest heavily in both. What matters isn’t where you’ve been. It’s whether you’re coachable, competitive, and ready to grow.
You know the car business. You’ve sold 15+ units a month. Maybe you’re at a store that’s losing traffic, cutting pay plans, or being run by people who stopped trying. You’re not looking for a job. You’re looking for a better situation.
Maybe you’re coming from retail, hospitality, the military, or you’re simply looking for a real career with uncapped income. We don’t expect you to know everything on day one. We expect you to show up hungry and willing to be coached.
Our management team is in the trenches daily. Desking deals, coaching conversations, reviewing CRM activity, running training. This isn’t a store where managers disappear into an office.
Product knowledge on the full Hyundai lineup. Objection handling. Phone skills. Follow-up systems. We invest in developing every person because better people produce better results.
We track performance because we care about your success. If your numbers dip, we don’t just talk about it. We figure out why, build a plan, and execute together.
Sales is the starting line, not the finish. Finance, management, BDC leadership, and other roles open up for people who earn them. We promote from within because we know what we’ve built.
Out of 947 Hyundai dealerships in the United States, World Hyundai Matteson ranks #36 nationally and #2 in the entire Chicago market. We climbed 31 national positions year-over-year and passed 6 dealerships nationally since January 2026. The store holding the #25 spot is 87 units away and declining at -13.2%.
We don’t need everyone. We need the right people. If you’re driven, coachable, and want to work at a dealership that’s going somewhere, let’s talk.
