Petrol cars dominate used car market in April, says Indicata

The fastest selling used cars in April were petrol models, as demand for the fuel outweighed that of diesel for the first time.

Hyundai took the number one spot in the used car rankings, which are compiled by Indicata, with its Tucson SUV (pictured above), for the second consecutive month.

It shared the position with BMW’s 3 Series, which has seen a boost in demand since the launch of an all-new model.

Neil Gilligan, national business development manager, Indicata UK explained: “April’s data serves to highlight the strength of the petrol market in April and signals one of the first months where diesel demand was outweighed by petrol.
