Proton GE: how many are still registered?

333still registered

Proton GE cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 12 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 3,809 (1995 Q4) - 8.7% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 19.5% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 111 in 2030.

178 of the survivors (53.4%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

Derivatives

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

By year

All 333 surviving Proton GE cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 1,965 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 14.4% 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.
