20 Oct
Summary
- The Toyota Yaris was the UK's fastest-selling used car in October.
- Used cars are selling faster than last month and last year.
- Electric vehicles remain the fastest-selling category overall.
In October, the Toyota Yaris emerged as the UK's fastest-selling used car, with an impressive average selling time of just 14 days. This remarkable speed surpasses even popular models like the Jaecoo 7. Overall demand for used vehicles remains robust, with cars selling in an average of 27 days, two days faster than the previous month and the same period in 2025.
Electric vehicles continued their reign as the fastest-selling category, averaging 25 days across all models. Hybrids followed closely at 26 days, while diesel vehicles took longer, averaging 32 days to sell. This trend highlights a consumer shift, potentially influenced by rising fuel costs, favoring more economical options.
Despite slower demand for diesel, it remains a crucial choice in certain market segments, offering opportunities for retailers. This year, an estimated 7.95 million used cars are projected to be sold in the UK, a 1.9% increase from last year, marking the highest annual total since 2017.
