KIA STINGER Ultra-rare
As of 2026 Q1, 44 KIA STINGERs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 48 in 2020 Q2 — only 92% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 4 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 1 a year (2.1% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2059 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. In all, the KIA STINGER is rarer than 68% of the 2,429 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
