New car sales are flying in 2015! We have now had 38 consecutive months of growth in car sales here in the UK, which is great news! But which cars are proving to be the most popular this year?

Well, after taking a look at some figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), we can see exactly which makes and models are the most popular. Below are the top 10 most popular cars in 2015 so far…

 

Ford Fiesta

The number one slot in this list is unsurprising. The Ford Fiesta has been topping the UK charts for a very long time and remains the number one most popular of 2015 so far. This little cracker offers practicality and bags of fun, all at an affordable price. Its fantastic fuel economy cannot be scoffed at either. This car is so popular that it has beaten second place by a seriously considerable margin.

In at number two is the spacious and nicely priced Vauxhall Corsa. This is a brilliant little runner that is proving to be extremely popular among buyers. This car comes nicely equipped with many features and a range of engine sizes to choose from. Whilst it will not blow your mind, it is a lovely little motor that offers good value for money.

The second Ford in the top ten is the Ford Focus. Another stalwart of UK roads, the Focus is a tremendous car that is slicker and more attractive than the Fiesta and is also just as fun to drive. The Focus is also similar to its more popular sibling when it comes to fuel efficiency. Ford just keep getting it right, and they fully deserve their two places on the podium.

Not far behind the Focus is the Volkswagen Golf. This uber-stylish car is a huge hit in the UK and has been among the most popular cars in this country for a very long time. The Golf looks great and is a real treat to drive. It’s spacious and is as adept at long journeys as it is perfect for nipping into town.

Breaking the mould here is the SUV/hatchback crossover that is the Nissan Qashqai. Nissan are being rewarded for making a bold move. They took an SUV-size and shape and put in two-wheel drive and a range of economical petrol and diesel engines, and the UK loved it! This is a brilliant family car that can rival the Ford Focus and the sales figures for 2015 are proving that.

The second Volkswagen to make our list is the excellent VW Polo. This car offers you a much better driving experience than the Ford Fiesta and is also that bit more stylish. Similar to the Golf mentioned above, this is an extremely versatile car that is perfect for any drive.

The Vauxhall Astra is an affordable rival to the Ford Focus and has been a popular car in this country for quite a few years. It offers a nice slick and smooth ride and looks great. And, on top of all of this, the Astra is deceptively spacious inside. If you’re after a great runaround, then this may well be the car for you!

The fantastic Audi A3 is proving to be a very popular choice amongst UK motorists. It is a magnificent car that offers you huge amounts of style. The A3 is an upmarket hatchback for fans of the Ford Focus and VW Golf that want a little more edge. The interior is also well thought out meaning this car is pretty on the inside and out.

The new Mercedes C-Class has overtaken the BMW 3 Series that was so popular last year. The Merc is a beautiful feat of engineering and its proving to be a very popular choice in 2015. It might not be the cheapest car on the market but that’s not putting buyers off. If you want a luxurious car that is a pleasure to drive then look no further.

The Fiat 500 is a hugely popular car in the UK. This is almost entirely down to its looks. Whilst it is not the best car to drive, and is also not cheap to buy, it’s excellent retro appearance has made it a resounding hit!
