Updated: 31 July 2026
The new car market is a competitive one, and it’s becoming even fiercer thanks to the ever-increasing number of brands selling their cars in the UK. Dealers are aware that new car buyers have more choice than ever, so are doing everything they can to get your attention.
That often includes slashing prices. No matter what sort of car you’re interested in buying, it’s highly likely that you’ll be able to drive away in a brand new example for thousands less than its official list price.
Of course, our New Car Deals page shows you the best price for any model. However, here, we share our pick of the 10 best discounts currently available for new cars, including agile small cars, practical electric SUVs and a premium estate car.

Strengths
- Reasonably priced
- Respectable charging speeds
- Plenty of standard kit
Weaknesses
- Disappointing Euro NCAP safety rating
- Rivals are better to drive
- Poor reliability record
Version 115 Yes | List price £28,175 | Best price £17,350 | Total discount £10,825 (38.42%)
Dealer discounts can help make the Vauxhall Corsa Electric one of the cheapest new EVs around, but you wouldn’t know it looking at the kit list. As standard, the entry-level Corsa Yes gets air conditioning, 16in alloy wheels, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel. The Corsa’s interior benefits from user-friendly physical controls, and slightly more rear passenger space than the Renault 5 offers. What’s more, the 267-litre boot is bigger than the Hyundai Inster’s.
Two versions are available, with the more upmarket 115 featuring a 48.1kWh (usable capacity) battery which gives the Corsa Electric an official range of 266 miles. That’s more than any MG4 Urban can cover. With 154bhp, the Corsa Electric feels spritely around town and has enough poke for motorway trips. And while you’ll hear some suspension noise over bumps, the Corsa Electric produces very little audible wind or road noise.
If you’d prefer to spread the cost of a Vauxhall Corsa Electric 115 Yes, you can lease one for £402 with a 60-month contract, featuring an annual restriction of 5000 miles and 12 months initial rental (£4816).

Strengths
- Good driving position
- Competitively priced
- Relatively fast charging
Weaknesses

- Average-sized boot
- Some rivals go even further on a charge
Version 54kWh e-Summit | List price £34,099 | Best price £23,824 | Total discount £10,275 (30.13%)
The Jeep Avenger Electric might be the smallest car in the brand’s lineup but it still has a lot of appeal. Every Avenger Electric comes with a 50.8kWh (usable capacity) battery for an official range of up to 249 miles. That’s about the same as the Renault 4, although the Ford Puma Gen-E can go even further. A 154bhp electric motor makes A-road overtaking easy, but the Avenger Electric feels most at home around town, thanks to a tight turning circle and light steering. Decent composure and front end grip means the Avenger Electric handles well through tight bends without resulting in a harsh ride.
The Avenger Electric’s interior features intuitive physical controls and a comfortable driving position. There are plenty of storage cubbies up front, and a usefully square boot which managed to stow five carry-on suitcases in our tests. You get plenty of standard equipment, with e-Summit trim featuring heated front seats, wireless phone charging and a reversing camera.
If you prefer to lease a car, a Jeep Avenger Electric 54kWh e-Summit through a 48-month contract with a yearly limit of 5000 miles and 12 months initial rental (£2961) for £247 per month.

- No hybrid option
Version 1.0 TSI 115 FR Sport DSG | List price £29,985 | Best price £20,990 | Total discount £8995 (30%)
The Seat Arona goes to show that you can have SUV practicality without sacrificing sharp handling. Precise steering and a lack of body lean mean the Arona is more entertaining to drive on country roads than the Peugeot 2008. In FR Sport trim, the Arona has firm sports suspension but still has a smoother ride than the Ford Puma. A range of petrol engines are offered, with the mid-range 1.0 TSI 115 offering plenty of punch for motorway trips while officially averaging nearly 50mpg.
In addition to feeling particularly plush by class standards, the Arona’s interior offers enough space in the back for a pair of six-footers. At 400 litres, the boot is roomier than the Kia Stonic’s, and comes with a height-adjustable floor as standard. Opt for range-topping FR Sport trim and the kit list also includes 18in alloy wheels, dual-zone climate control and keyless entry.
To avoid leaving a dent in your finances, it’s also possible to lease this version of the Arona for £296 per month. To do that, you’ll need a 48-month contract with an annual restriction of 5000 miles and pay 12 months up front (£3547).

Version Long Range 02 | List price £27,005 | Best price £18,999 | Total discount £8006 (29.65%)
You no longer have to spend a fortune to get an impressive electric car, as the Hyundai Inster goes to show. For starters, the Inster Long Range travels further than any Citroën ë-C3 between charges, with an official range of 230 miles. This version of the Inster comes with a 113bhp electric motor, which helps it to feel punchy up to motorway speeds. What’s more, the Inster is easy to drive around town, thanks to its compact dimensions and light steering. Nevertheless, pick up the pace and the Inster offers enough grip to maintain confidence.
The Inster’s party piece is its individually sliding rear seats, which offer enough room for six-footers when slid all the way back yet more boot space than the Renault 5 when pushed forwards. In 02 guise, the Inster is also very well-equipped, featuring heated front seats, 17in alloy wheels, wireless phone charging and an uprated stereo as standard.
Lease deals for the Inster are also favourable, with the Long Range 02 available for £250 per month. For that price, you’ll need a 48-month contract with 12 months initial rental (£2995) and cover no more than 6000 miles per year.

Strengths
- Eager performance from Long Range version
- Standard Range SE gets you lots of space for the money
- User-friendly controls
Weaknesses
- Choppy high-speed ride
- Range-topper's price edges close to better rivals
- MG has a poor reliability record
Version 64kWh Trophy Long Range | List price £33,995 | Best price £24,249 | Total discount £9746 (28.67%)
Compared with the popular yet rather uninspiring MG ZS EV it replaces, the S5 is a particularly well-rounded electric SUV. Two battery options are available, with the Long Range officially capable of 298 miles; more than any Jeep Avenger Electric can manage. A 228bhp electric motor gives this version of the S5 a faster 0-60mph time than the equivalent Kia EV3 in our tests. Accurate steering and good grip help the S5 stay composed around tight bends, and while the suspension is stiffer than average, it still soaks up large bumps well. On the motorway, the S5 is a very refined cruiser, with only a small amount of wind noise.
The S5 is certainly practical, enough space for five adults inside its plush interior. What’s more, its boot has enough space for a considerable seven carry-on suitcases. The top-spec S5 Trophy has a lengthy list of standard kit, including a 360-degree camera, powered tailgate and heated front seats.
You can lease this version of the MG S5 for £314 per month if you opt for a 48-month contract with a 5000-mile yearly restriction and pay 12 months up front (£3766).

Version Standard Range Style | List price £32,685 | Best price £23,495 | Total discount £9190 (28.12%)
The first generation to be designed with European buyers in mind, the Ford Explorer offers great value for money; particularly if you take advantage of dealer discounts. Even the cheaper Standard Range version sprints from 0-62mph in a healthy 8.7sec and can officially manage 273 miles between charges; beating the closely-related Volkswagen ID 4. The Explorer soaks up potholes well while leaning less around corners than the Renault Scenic. What’s more, you won’t hear much wind or road noise sat inside the Explorer at motorway speeds.
The Explorer’s interior is visually impressive, with its large portrait-mounted touchscreen. It offers enough space for four six-footers, and plenty of interior storage cubbies for their odds and ends, including a 17-litre compartment underneath the front central armrest. The entry-level Explorer Style is far from sparsely equipped, featuring adaptive cruise control, dual-zone climate control and a seven speaker sound system which includes a soundbar on the dashboard.
To spread the cost of a new Explorer Standard Range Style, it’s possible to lease one through a 60-month contract with an annual limit of 5000 miles and 12 months initial rental (£3947) for £329 per month.

- Interior quality could be better
Version 84kWh Premium | List price £46,755 | Best price £33,955 | Total discount £12,800 (27.38%)
It’s not just its bold exterior that makes the Hyundai Ioniq 5 stand out; compared with most electric SUVs it’s incredibly practical. There’s more space for six-footers in the back than you’ll find in the Tesla Model Y, helped by the set of sliding and reclining rear seats which come as standard. The 520-litre boot offered enough space to stow seven carry-on suitcases during our tests.
With the larger 80kWh (usable capacity) battery fitted, the Ioniq 5 can officially cover 354 miles between charges, which matches the most efficient Skoda Elroq. This version of the Ioniq 5 also has ample performance from its 225bhp electric motor. Soft suspension gives the Ioniq 5 a particularly supple yet settled ride. While you’ll encounter some body lean on twisty roads, the Ioniq 5’s steering feels accurate and there’s plenty of grip. Moreover, go for the smaller set of 19in alloy wheels and there’s not much road noise at high speed.

Version 53.9kWh Premium Long Range | List price £27,995 | Best price £20,849 | Total discount £7149 (25.53%)
Don’t let the name confuse you, the MG4 Urban has precious little to do with the regular MG4. Instead, it’s a cheaper yet slightly larger car, with more rear leg room than virtually all of its small electric car rivals, including the Renault 5. Its boot is also larger than average, with enough room for four carry-on suitcases. Go for range-topping Premium trim, and you won’t be short on equipment, either; heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless phone charger and a 360-degree parking camera all come as standard.
Two versions of the MG4 Urban are available, with the more expensive Long Range featuring a 52.8kWh (usable capacity) battery. This version has competitive performance and officially manages up to 258 miles between charges, which is better than any Hyundai Inster. While the MG4 Urban’s suspension is on the firm side, it soaks up most bumps well and leans less around bends than the Inster does.
If you’re looking to lease this version of the MG4 Urban, a 48-month contract with 12 months initial rental (£3108) and a restriction of 5000 miles per year would cost £259.

Version 1.0 TSI 115 FR Sport | List price £26,310 | Best price £19,890 | Total discount £6420 (24.4%)
If you’re looking for a small car that’s sophisticated to drive, the Seat Ibiza is worthy of your consideration. Put simply, it’s the best-handling small car on the market, with precise steering, lots of grip and little in the way of body lean. Even so, most versions of the Ibiza soak up bumps in the road admirably. With the 1.0-litre TSI 115 petrol engine fitted, performance is brisk enough to keep up with motorway traffic, yet still delivers respectable fuel economy figures.
Featuring more upmarket materials than you’ll find in the Skoda Fabia, the Ibiza’s interior offers an exceptionally adjustable driving position and good visibility. What’s more, it can seat four six-footers more comfortably than most small cars. Its boot is also big by class standards, offering more space than the Renault Clio’s. In FR Sport trim, the Ibiza’s standard kit list includes 18in black alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, heated front bucket seats and keyless entry.
Moreover, leasing deals on Ibizas are also favourable. With a 24-month contract featuring an annual limit of 5000 miles and 12 months payment up front (£2474), you can get into an Ibiza 1.0 TSI 115 FR Sport for £207 per month.

Version 2.0 TFSI 204 S line 204ps S Tronic | List price £49,650 | Best price £37,995 | Total discount £11,655 (23.47%)
In short, Audi’s smallest estate car is big on driving enjoyment. It’s available with a range of petrol and diesel engines, with the 2.0-litre TFSI 204 petrol unit giving the A5 Avant enough punch to accelerate from 0-62mph in a respectable 7.8sec; not far off the BMW 320i Touring. It’s also officially more economical than the equivalent Mercedes C-Class Estate. On twisty country roads, the A5 Avant’s steering is precise, and there’s huge levels of grip to boost confidence. Opt for S line trim and the A5 Avant features sports suspension, which is surprisingly supple over bumps while keeping body lean at bay.
The A5 Avant’s interior features a considerable amount of plush materials, and it’s easy to find a comfortable driving position. There’s enough room for adults in the back, and plenty of storage compartments for their odds and ends. And while the A5 Avant’s boot isn’t class-leading, its square shape and 40/20/40 split folding rear seats boost its practicality.
If you prefer to pay monthly, you could lease this version of the A5 Avant for £477 per month. For that price, you’ll need a 48-month contract with a 5000-mile yearly limit and pay 12 months initial rental (£5714).
