Best-selling cars 2023: the UK\u2019s top 10 most popular models<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nMeanwhile, in the Fiesta\u2019s run-out year the model sits in 10th place, although I suspect it\u2019ll drop out of the top 10 by the end of 2023, while the Ford Kuga popped up in fourth place in the September list of best sellers.<\/p>\n
Proof that car buyers still love superminis, though, is that the Vauxhall Corsa sits in third place so far this year, with Volkswagen\u2019s Polo putting in an appearance in the top 10 for September, too.<\/p>\n
Often overlooked is the data for LCVs \u2013 Light Commercial Vehicles, or vans to you and me. Here Ford has always dominated, and it continues to blow rivals away, with the Transit Custom and Transit in positions one and two for the year to date (as well as for the month of September). In fact, Ford has sold more than twice the number of Transit Custom vans that its closest rival, the Vauxhall Vivaro, has managed so far in 2023.<\/p>\n
Two more Fords feature in the year-so-far top 10: the Ranger pick-up and the smaller Transit Connect. Add the four models together and they sell over 4,000 more than the rest of the LCV top 10 put together.<\/p>\n
We might still be scratching our heads at Ford\u2019s decision to ditch the Fiesta, but the latest registration data shows just how important the UK still is to the Blue Oval.<\/p>\n
