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

By year

All 84,459 surviving Vauxhall Meriva cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 94,777 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 40.9% 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.
