United Kingdom Car Loan Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

Market Report I 2025-06-06 I 108 Pages I EMR Inc.

The United Kingdom car loan market size reached approximately USD 62.48 Billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.40% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of around USD 116.19 Billion by 2034.

Car loans are a financial offering provided by banking companies and government institutions to enable consumers to purchase their vehicle without paying the full price at the time of transfer of ownership. Instead, consumers pay the principal amount of the price along with the interest rate on the loan in periodic installments and gain ownership rights on the vehicle upon completion of the price payment.

The market is being driven by soaring prices of second-hand vehicles and the increasing launches of new vehicles in the UK. With rising inflation, banks are focusing on encouraging consumer savings by putting forth simple terms and conditions for acquiring loans, which is leading to the United Kingdom car loan market development.

United Kingdom Car Loan Market Trends

This growth in the popularity of car leasing as a financing option is expected to contribute to the United Kingdom car loan market growth.

The proliferation of digital banking services has contributed to the popularity of car loan financing in the UK.
