SEAT has updated the Ibiza with more tech, a revised engine range and a subtly fresh look. The Ford Fiesta and Peugeot 208 rival will go on sale in autumn.

A brand-new, entry-level Volkswagen ID.3 trim, named City, has launched. Priced at £28,370 after the Government’s £2500 plug-in vehicle grant has been applied, it’ll have an official electric range of 217 miles.

The Sandero Stepway's pared-down safety specification offered is a basic autonomous emergency braking system, which cannot detect pedestrians or cyclists.<br />

Citroen’s new C5 X is hard to pin down in terms of shape. But what we can tell you is that it’ll be comfortable, well-equipped and spacious. We also expect it to start at around £30,000, with the first deliveries predicted towards the end of 2021/early 2022.

These are the UK's favourite cars, based on the latest SMMT registration figures for March 2021.

The UK’s new car market recorded its first growth since August 2020, with 29,280 more cars registered last month compared to March 2020.
