By year

All 329 surviving SYM MIO motorcycles, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 194 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 60.0% 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.
