Here are the UK's best-selling cars of 2025

Volvo XC40 - 25,106

Volvo XC40 Top Gear

"The XC40 is an upright and solid SUV rather than pretending too hard to be a car-like crossover. Volvo has made something nicely distinctive here. That's helped by the fact the values of an SUV correspond with many of the values of Volvo."

VW Tiguan - 25,532

Driving shot of the VW Tiguan

"This is a mid-size SUV that aims to stay steadfastly sensible while all around it try to win your attention with obtuse design. And aside from its tough ride, there’s not a huge amount to truly criticise."

  1. Hyundai Tucson - 25,899

    Driving shot of Hyundai Tucson

    "Love the way it looks? Then the Tucson doesn’t put a foot wrong, driving decently and brimming with well-implemented tech. Always bought Hyundais for their sensibility, and not so sure on the styling? Then rest assured the only thing longer than the equipment list is the warranty."

    1. VW Golf - 27,784

      Driving shot of the VW Golf

      "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."

      issan Juke - 29,612

      Driving shot of the Nissan Juke

      "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..."

      Vauxhall Corsa - 31,675

      "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 - 35,250

      Driving shot of Nissan Qashqai, from rear

      "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."

      Kia Sportage - 42,164

      Driving shot of the Kia Sportage

      "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."

      1. Ford Puma - 45,949

        Driving shot of the Ford Puma, side profile

        "It's easily superior to its closest rivals and brings driver appeal to a woefully uninteresting class of cars..."
