10 Best Car Mats UK 2023 | Michelin, Vauxhall, and More

We weren't joking when we said the folk at Michelin knew a thing or two about creating decent car mats! This is their answer to those requesting an all-weather option, and to be frank, they've knocked it out the park. The set is capable of fitting in cars, SUVs, vans, trucks and even 4x4s. 

When it comes to ultimate protection and functionality, you'll be hard-pressed to find anything better. These rubber mats have been designed with traps that collect dirt, liquids and other debris. That way it can be easily disposed of, rather than finding its way onto the floor of your car. 

This universal set from Sakura has it's feet split evenly in each camp, with the company using both materials to produce a trusty and reliable set of mats. Both the front and the back use a combination of carpet and rubber to offer complete protection that spans the entirety of your vehicle's interior.

One thing worth mentioning is that these mats are particularly large, which is a real bonus if you have a larger vehicle. This also provides a lot more leeway should you need to trim them down.

Michelin may be better known for producing world-class tyres, but they're rather good at making car accessories too - as proven by these premium car mats. The front panels both feature an additional heel pad for extra comfort, and although they may be considered a touch expensive compared to some others, they do have a more high-end feel. 

This set comes with a stain-resistant treatment that offers you a little more protection, and should keep them looking fresher for longer.

Here is another set of heavy-duty floor mats, but this time they're designed with an intricate traction pattern. This safety feature should help keep them securely in place while they're in use. 

This pack offers five pieces, instead of four. Why, you might ask? Well, the extra mat is for protecting the boot of your car. So you can happily sling your walking boots in the back once you've completed a nice, weekend trek around the Somerset countryside. 

This distinctive set of mats from Ring Automotive combines carpet and rubber to deliver the best of both. The base of the floor mat is made from PVC rubber, which will protect your car from dirt, water and grease - if you have a habit of throwing the packaging in the back after a trip to the drive-thru.

The fit is universal and will require only minor alterations to bring it in line with your vehicle. Autocar, one of the nation's favourite automobile review sites, rates these mats very highly, and we don't think that's a coincidence!  

Whilst most carpet car mats will give you a nice bounce compared to their rubber counterparts, these babies from Safe Travel go one step further by including an additional heel pad. This not only aids in improving the overall comfort, but provides greater durability too. 

The design is minimal with a nice stitched trim around the edges for a classier finish. The only real downside could just as well be considered a positive depending on where you sit, and we literally mean where you sit. You see, they're manufactured for left-hand drive cars. 

This set of car mats is ideal for those who are likely to see a lot of rough and messy use. That's because they're made out of a robust and very durable rubber material that can withstand a lot of wear and tear. Think heavy, muddy boots, and whatever your mucky children can throw at them. 

As with most in our ranking, this too comes as a four-piece set, although much cheaper than many of the other options. However, there have been some complaints regarding slipping. Therefore, it's essential to make sure they're placed as securely as possible. 

This is another tailor-made carpet car mat set, this time for a Ford Fiesta 2011. The design is simple, with a cool grey trim that adds a touch of character to an otherwise featureless accessory. If you would prefer something a bit more exciting than grey, there are 11 different colour variations to choose from, including neon yellow and hot pink. 

Moreover, the mats have a sturdy rubber backing that will see them stay in place throughout the duration of your drive. Sadly, it's a little on the thin side. So you if you're looking for a luxury feel, these might not be for you. 

Here we have an all-season set that is truly universal. With a few simple cuts, these mats will be at home in cars, SUVs and even trucks. They're made from heavy-duty, BPA-free rubber, so there are no toxic chemicals, or funky, plastic-y smells. 

We've opted for the beige colour here, which could be a little risky as they'll likely look dirtier quicker. However, they're also available in a more neutral black, and even grey if you'd prefer. 

If you're looking for sleek and sophisticated mats for the floor of your Corsa, then you've come to the right place! These carpet mats are a genuine Vauxhall product, so you know they've been designed specifically with your model in mind. 

This four-piece set provides protection for both front footwells and each back seat. The obvious downside is that they're only useful if you drive a Vauxhall Corsa. Some buyers have also found that they retain smells for long periods of time, so you might want to avoid these if you like to take the pooch in the car.
