Ford Focus: how many are still registered?

1,002,332still registered

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 1,486,959 (2014 Q2) - 67.4% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 4.7% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 787,907 in 2030.

99,494 of the survivors (9.9%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

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

By year

All 1,002,332 surviving Ford Focus cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 923,448 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 38.5% 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.
