SMMT Chief Executive Mike Hawes said: 2021 was anything but normal, but British drivers stuck to their familiar favourites of grey, black and white cars. But while last year s new cars might share the same shades as previous years, under the bonnet there has been a real shift, with one in six buyers choosing to go green. With car registrations still low compared to pre-pandemic, helping even more drivers move to greener cars - whatever the actual colour - has never been more important.
