AA Personal Loans: Small cars more popular

High fuel prices have helped small cars to become the most popular vehicle of choice for British drivers, according to AA Personal Loans.

Smaller cars that are cheaper to run are now favoured by 43 per cent of British motorists, which is double the proportion who favoured more compact vehicles 18 months ago, the loans provider revealed.

The findings from the survey of over 2,000 motorists come as fuel prices are reached the £1 a litre barrier.

Gas-guzzling 4x4s are favoured by just four per cent, where as more than a quarter of drivers (28 per cent) looking for a new car that is cheap to operate, AA Personal Loans' study also found.

"The environmental impact, running costs and practicality appear to be growing concerns [for motorists] … Britons are putting practicality and cost first," said Mark Huggins, managing director of the group.

Used-car buyers are now more likely to choose a diesel, rather than petrol-based engine as the gap between the cost of the fuels is closing, a recent study by AA Personal Loans found.
