Volkswagen EOS: how many are still registered?

12,111still registered

Volkswagen EOS cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 48 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 19,094 (2015 Q3) - 63.4% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 6.9% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 8,469 in 2030, and under 1,000 around 2060.

2,029 of the survivors (16.7%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

Derivatives

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

By year

All 12,111 surviving Volkswagen EOS cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 7,022 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 62.3% 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.
