The Top Selling Cars in the UK

It is always interesting to look back and see what cars were the most popular in the UK in the previous year. There are often a couple of regulars which are UK favourites and have been for many years, but often you find a few new entries which show certain trends in the automotive industry. Here are the top-selling cars in the UK in 2019.

Ford Fiesta

Unsurprisingly, the Fiesta retains the top spot comfortably with almost 20,000 more sales than the vehicle in second. The Fiesta is a great all-rounder which appeals to many types of motorist so it is no surprise that it is the UK’s favourite.

Volkswagen Golf

Another iconic car in the UK that is consistently amongst the best selling, the VW Golf took the second spot and best of the rest. Again, this is a car that appeals to a wide range of motorists and is known for its build-quality, comfortable interior and reliability.

Ford Focus

The Ford Focus rounds out the top three and it is no surprise to see this popular model retain its popularity as a family hatchback that has great looks, a comfortable interior and superb handling.

Vauxhall Corsa

The Corsa is another vehicle which consistently is amongst the best-selling and a vehicle that is known for its great reliability and build-quality. With a new generation scheduled for release, it will be interesting to see if it rises the rankings next year.

Mercedes-Benz A-Class

Many motorists dream of owning a Mercedes and the premium A-Class hatch is a more affordable way of doing this. As you would expect, it has a luxury interior, cutting-edge technology and a smooth driving performance.

Nissan Qashqai

The SUV market is one which has exploded in popularity in recent times with the Qashqai leading the way. The pioneering SUV continues to sell despite a wave of rival models arriving in recent times.

Ford Kuga

One of these new SUVs challenging the Qashqai is the Kuga – Ford’s third entry in the top 10. As you would expect with Ford, it is highly reliable, comfortable and has excellent build quality.

MINI Hatch

MINI is an iconic British brand so it is no surprise that it appears in the top 10. MINI will always appeal to UK motorists with many opting to lease from places like Zen Auto as an easy and flexible way to get behind the wheel.

These are the top selling cars in the UK in 2019 – as you can see, it is largely built up of familiar names along with a few more recent models.
