More motorists than ever before are choosing diesel

Diesel car registrations are continuing to soar as buyers react to rising fuel prices. The latest sales figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) show that in August diesel sales rose by 10.7% - marking almost five consecutive years of growth.

Diesel-engined variants now account for 36.3% of all new cars sold in Britain.

Christopher Macgowen, chief executive of the SMMT, said: “As fuel prices soar, buyers are really switching on to its benefits and last month marked almost five consecutive years of diesel growth.

Cheaper motoring and greater model choice are just two of its selling points - better fuel consumption is also helping to lower average carbon dioxide emissions from the tailpipe.”

Diesel sales to fleets reflect the trend, with certain models recording massive rises.
