New figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) show new car registrations rising in September by 4.6%.
A total of 225,269 new cars were registered.
Year to date new car registrations are down -8.2%.
September has seen Britain’s millionth electric car reach the road – an important milestone in the shift to zero emission mobility. Battery electric vehicles make up but a small fraction of cars on the road, so we need to ensure every lever is pulled to encourage motorists to make the shift if our green goals are to be met. The overall market remains weak, however, as supply chain issues continue to constrain model availability. Whilst the industry is working hard to address these issues, the long-term recovery of the market also depends on robust consumer confidence and economic stability.
