‘Although the supply of new cars is slowly improving, many would-be, brand-new car buyers who aren’t prepared to wait are preferring to turn to the second-hand market for ‘nearly-new’ alternatives. ‘It’s also interesting to note that hybrid models made up the majority of the fastest sellers. ‘Fully electric prices are softening, but for many, they aren’t quite in reach yet, so for those car buyers who still want great economy and lower emissions than traditionally fuelled vehicles but without the price tag, hybrids are a good option.
