The i10 is Hyundai UK's smallest car, smaller than anything Hyundai offers in North America. The sixth-ranked Volkswagen Polo is smaller than anything Volkswagen offers in North America. The Vauxhall Corsa is a Chevrolet Sonic-sized car. And the Ford Fiesta is offered in three-door form in the UK, two fewer doors than Ford fits Fiestas with in North America. Even one of the bigger cars on this list, the Vauxhall Insignia, is no bigger than its twin, the Buick Regal. The Regal, you may recall, isn't a particularly big car by North American standards.
You get the picture - the most popular cars on the other side of the Atlantic are invariably small. Last month's version of this list, absent the Hyundai i10 and Vauxhall Insignia, can be viewed here. The Ford Fiesta was Britain's best-selling car in November, as well.
