Ford has also said it will offer further discounts across its large car range, on top of the £2000, ranging from £1250 for a Ford Fusion, £2500 for a Mondeo through to £3000 for a Galaxy. This scheme will be called 'Scrappage Plus'.
BMW has confirmed it will take part and offer additional dealer discounts on selected models. A three-door BMW 116i Sport, for instance, will get an additional £1260 dealer contribution discount on top of the £2000 scrappage saving.
Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge are all participating in the scheme, but no additional discounts have been announced.
Fiat is offering additional discounts on some of its models, although exact details have yet to be published.
Kia's decision to join the scheme means that customers will be able to pick up a brand new Kia Picanto for just over £4000. With a £1000 deposit, that means the Picanto is available on Kia's finance package for just £10 per week.
Kia is also continuing to run other offers, which will put the price of a basic Kia Cee'd down to just £7995.
Mazda will continue to run its finance promotions alongside the scrappage scheme.
MG will offer the basic £2000 discount on all its models.
Mini has said it will take part in the scheme, but said the £2000 scrappage discount cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer.
Nissan has said it will sign-up, and said that it will also give a minimum trade-in of £2000 until 30 June for cars eight to ten years old if the buyer is building a British-built Micra, Note, Qashqai or Qashqai+2.
Peugeot has said it will offer additional discounts on selected models, including some from the 308, 207 and Bipper. It is also guaranteeing at least a £1000 discount to buyers who don't have a car to scrap.
