Emerging Trends in the UK Car Export Market for 2025 | GVE London – Blog

The UK’s automotive industry has been a major player in the market for a long time, and it seems that isn’t going to change in 2025. The market is growing, new trends are beginning to emerge, and the way businesses interact with people and other businesses is changing. In this blog post, we’ll be predicting and pondering over the emerging trends of 2025 in regards to the UK’s car export market.

Boom in the Used-Car Market

The pre-owned vehicle market in the UK is experiencing its sixth consecutive quarter of growth, with sales increasing by 6.5% in Q1 2024 and 7.2% in Q2 2024. This growth is driven by a demand for older, retro cars that are more “machine-like” and less electronically dependent, as well as the fact that purchasing pre-owned vehicles is a great way to contribute to sustainability efforts.

Brexit and its Impact on Car Exports

Since Brexit, the UK economy has greatly recovered, and now trade with Europe, despite some additional steps, has been streamlined to a large extent. However, the bigger picture is the UK’s sovereignty over its own economy and its ability to build trade relationships outside of the EU.

In 2025, the UK’s car export market is expected to find new trade avenues beyond Europe. This includes increasing exports to markets in North America, the Middle East, and Asia, where demand for luxury and supercars is rising. China and India are especially tempting for luxury car exports as their average age is young, and individuals in these developing nations now have more disposable income than before, allowing them to indulge in the craze for luxury and high-performance cars.

The Age of Social Media

The world is more connected now than ever before, no questions about that. In less than a second, photos can be sent from one side of the planet to another; maybe two for a video. The point being, civilization is more interconnected, which allows for easier trade. Trade showrooms have highly benefited from this.

Now, their clientele is not limited to a singular state or country, but the entire world is potentially a customer. And luxury car exports from the UK, with the right preparations and research, aren’t super complicated either. In 2025, we expect to see trade between trade showrooms like GVE London and international clientele only increase.

Conclusion

With major brands from the UK shifting towards EVs, the access to social media and instant connection with international car enthusiasts, paired with economic sovereignty post-Brexit, exporting cars from the UK is only going to increase, as expected, in 2025. Supercar showrooms like GVE London are at the forefront of this, with a wide range of car collections, ready to export anywhere in the world.
