HOW MANY ZENOS ARE LEFT?

There are 16 ZENOS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 26 ZENOS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ZENOS was highest during 2022 Q4 (45). The number taxed topped out in 2016 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 3 (7%) ZENOS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2020 Q1 the number of ZENOS 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 ZENOS has gained 35. Licensed models have increased by 9 and the SORNed total has increased by 26.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 5 ZENOS models. Taxed models have declined by 6 and the SORNed total has increased by 11.

62% of the remaining 42 ZENOS in the UK are currently off the road.
