Lisa Brankin, Ford UK chair and MD, couldn't contain her joy: "I'm delighted that the Puma was not only the best-selling vehicle and car in the UK, but that the Transit Custom was also the best-selling commercial vehicle in 2023.

This tremendous achievement sets a solid foundation for us to accelerate our electrification plans in both the car and van markets as we move forward into 2024."
