    Chinese automakers' registrations in the UK rose to 519,424 vehicles between January and August 2026, capturing 28.1% market share, up from 12.9% in the same period in 2025. The best-selling Jaecoo 7, nicknamed the 'Temu Range Rover,' sold 10,814 units in September. UK Business Minister Jonathan Reynolds is considering matching the EU's up to 35.3% tariff on Chinese EVs to avoid Made in Europe barriers, with China warning of retaliatory measures.
