HOW MANY KIA CARENS LX ARE LEFT?

There are 18 KIA CARENS LX left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 89 KIA CARENS LX that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KIA CARENS LX was highest during 2007 Q4 (1,533). The number taxed topped out in 2005 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2018 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 1,426 (93%) KIA CARENS LX have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q3 the number of KIA CARENS LX that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of KIA CARENS LX has fallen by 897. Licensed models have fallen by 920 and the SORNed total has increased by 23.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 143 KIA CARENS LX models. Taxed models have declined by 136 and the SORNed total has fallen by 7.

83% of the remaining 107 KIA CARENS LX in the UK are currently off the road.
