Source: CarWow and Data based on early 2026 year-to-date (YTD) figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) as reported in March 2026 As of early 2026, the Ford Puma has continued its reign as the UK's best-selling car, leading the market with over 6,900 registrations in the first two months. The Kia Sportage remains its closest competitor in second place, while the newly introduced Jaecoo 7 has surprisingly broken into the top three most popular models, highlighting a rise in competition. Top Selling Cars in the UK (Jan-Feb 2026 YTD): 1. Ford Puma (6,935): Maintains the top spot, bolstered by strong sales of its hybrid and electric variants. 2. Kia Sportage (6,880): Strong contender, close behind the Puma, favored for its range of hybrid options. 3. Jaecoo 7 (5,505): A new Chinese SUV that has made an immediate, significant impact in the market. 4. Vauxhall Corsa (4,237): Continues to be a popular choice in the supermini segment. 5. Nissan Qashqai (approx. 2,995): Remains a staple in the top 10 as a popular family SUV.
I wouldn’t drive any of those without a balaclava… My mum’s got a Quashqai and I sometimes have to shift it around for her. But I wait until it’s dark.
Yep enough to buy a very similar car to the RR in design (and far superior in tech/fitment) and for half the price
Warning, I'm going to express an opinion which some won't agree with. But it's mine from experiance. Have you owned and driven any Range Rover any distance? I've had a few over the years, and yes they've been reliable enough for me. I've also had 3 Jaecoos as hire cars for work over the last 6 months or so and have now given up my right to a hire car as I'd rather do any distance runs in my 11yr old top of the range Discovery, which is a much better place to spend time and in my opinion is a better driving experiance. I'd chose a used £35k 2018MY Range Rover over a new Jaecoo every time. Sorry.
