Hyundai Elantra: how many are still registered?

345still registered

Hyundai Elantra cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 10 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 5,535 (2006 Q4) - 6.2% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 14.6% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 155 in 2030.

222 of the survivors (64.3%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

By year

All 345 surviving Hyundai Elantra cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 2,767 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 11.0% 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.
