Here are the UK's best-selling cars of 2025... so far
Here's what you bought in January. Prepare to be... whelmed
MG ZS - 2,107
"The ZS is competitive because of its low price, of course, but you won’t feel shortchanged."

"The new HS represents a useful step forward; a car whose looks, powertrain and perception of quality have all improved."
Nissan Juke - 2,320
"The Juke's main pitch, as before, is its style. But it's no longer hobbled by it as the first generation was. It's perfectly OK to drive, with eager steering and a refined throttle. And it's now at least averagely practical..."

"The UK loves a Ford. Though the Focus and Fiesta have tumbled from the best-sellers list, it's the Puma that's now doing the heavy lifting for Ford. It's an impressively rounded thing. The interior is cleverly versatile as well as nicely furnished..."
Peugeot 2008 - 2,478
"This one is among the good ‘uns: it suits its skin rather than looking like a bloated hatchback, the interior feels genuinely fresh, and it’s one of the better driving, sportier small crossovers in a bustling, often dizzyingly crowded segment."
Peugeot 3008 - 2,567
"The 3008 is refined and quiet and rides well, and is easy going over long distances. We like the powertrain even if overtaking performance is pretty limited."
VW Golf - 2,614
"There wasn’t a whole bunch wrong with the Mk7 Golf. And when the Mk8 arrived, we longed for the clarity of the old car’s infotainment. While the touchscreen still rules in the Mk8.5, the new system is undoubtedly an improvement. And the rest of the car is, sure enough, finely polished. Better steering, better refinement, better safety."

"All previous Corsas have reeked of mediocrity, but this one drives with poise and precision: it’s more refined, efficient, comfortable and it looks smart too."
Nissan Qashqai - 3,421
"Qashqais were always a very Goldilocks proposition for a lot of family transport in terms of exterior size vs usefulness – and it’s well-priced"

"It’s not quite as posh as an Audi Q3 or BMW X1, and not as engaging to drive as a Ford Kuga or Seat Ateca, but the balance between the two is well judged."
