As of 2026 Q1, 46,235 KIA VENGAs remain registered in the UK — still a familiar sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 48,984 in 2019 Q4 — only 94% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 2,749 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 679 a year (1.5% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2073 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer.
