Motorpoint reports “strong market outperformance”

Motorpoint Group, the Derby-based independent omnichannel vehicle retailer, has reported “strong market outperformance” in a trading update for the six months ended 30 September 2025 (H1 FY26).

The business saw retail volume growth of 8.9%, compared with H1 FY25. Meanwhile, total revenue increased 15% to £648m. Profit before taxation is expected to be £3.6m, up 80%.

Mark Carpenter, CEO, Motorpoint Group PLC, said: “I am pleased to report that the Group has delivered strong volume growth and significantly outperformed the wider market in the first half of FY26, building upon the improvements achieved last year.

“Data is increasingly fundamental to our business, supporting buying and pricing decisions, underpinning strong metal margins, and enabling us to sell more vehicles through market leading pricing and customer interaction. Providing our customers with a seamless experience has continued to drive our performance and our Net Promoter Score in the first half improved to 83.

“Although economic uncertainty remains, I am confident that our omnichannel business model and exciting strategic plans stand us in good stead going forward as we pursue expanded supply channels, new store openings, improved online and store channel integration, along with data and AI to drive further efficiency and improved customer experiences.

“We are well placed to take full advantage of the opportunities that exist in our market to build long term value.”
