After an exceptional March, Ford’s April’s new car figures flopped into negative territory with a drop of more than 14% for the month.
While March marked the fourth month of decline overall for LCV sales with a 3.2% drop, Ford increased registrations by nearly 9%.
Ford experienced an incredible March with more than 6,600 more cars registered than the same month in 2024.
Ford, Audi, BMW, Citroen, SEAT and Vauxhall are all more than 2,000 units down in the first two months of the year, but Ford is the biggest falling brand.
Stellantis has seen a stellar drop in new van registrations year-to-date, against an overall market that’s running down a disappointing 20% in 2025.
Eighteen LCV brands saw a drop in registrations in the first month of 2025.
Conversely, electric van registrations saw a significant improvement.
