2026.05.0508:00:00UTC+00UK New Car Registrations Slump in April After March Surge

New passenger car registrations in the United Kingdom dropped sharply in April 2026, following a strong performance in March, according to the latest data updated on 5 May 2026.

Registrations fell to 149,247 units in April 2026, down from 380,627 units recorded in March 2026. The steep month-on-month decline suggests a significant cooling in showroom activity after what appears to have been a particularly strong March, a month that often benefits from new number plate introductions and seasonal buying patterns.

The reversal in April will likely draw attention from market watchers assessing the resilience of UK consumer demand and the broader automotive sector’s momentum amid changing economic conditions.
