Derivatives

DVLA also registers other body types under the Daewoo Kalos nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is cars only.

By year

All 744 surviving Daewoo Kalos cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 6,406 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 10.4% of the 2014 figure. That is the earliest real count of the same cars: DVLA publishes no production figures, so nothing here is a count of how many were built.
