The fastest selling used car in June was the MG3, with nearly new petrol models, under six months old, averaging seven days in stock.
June’s fastest selling EV was the Ford Mustang Mach-e, averaging 15 days on forecourts, while the fastest selling hybrid was the BYD Seal U at 12 days.
Overall, used cars averaged 31 days to sell, an increase of one day over May, according to analysis from online classified group Motors.
The average price of a used car listed on Motors was £17,167, down just £6 MoM, representing a drop of 2.4% compared to January 2025.
“With inventory levels higher than they were 12 months ago, dealers still achieved stock turn in line with the seasonal norm, albeit with dealers fighting hard to attract buyers with competitive prices,” said Lucy Tugby, marketing director of Motors.
Alternatively fuelled vehicles increased their share of dealer inventories to a new high of 18%, with hybrids at 11% and electric vehicles at 7%. Petrol continues to be the most popular fuel type (51%), with diesel falling below one-third (32%).
The average price of EVs (£24,185) tracked lower than hybrids (£24,902) for the fourth consecutive month, although still a long way above petrol (£16,575) and diesel (£15,245) models.
EVs also achieved YoY increases in listings on MOTORS, up from 5% to 6%, resulting in ad views rising from 2% to 3%.
June’s fastest selling EV was the Ford Mustang Mach-e, averaging 15 days on forecourts, while the fastest selling hybrid was the BYD Seal U at 12 days.
“Alternatively fuelled cars are building momentum in the used car market with average prices of EVs now consistently lower than hybrids, building confidence among dealers to stock them and customers to buy them,” said Tugby.
