RENAULT MODUS Common

As of 2026 Q1, 13,932 RENAULT MODUSs remain registered in the UK — still a familiar sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 35,612 in 2014 Q3 — only 39% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 21,680 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 2,120 a year (15.2% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2030 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer.

About the MODUS

The Renault Modus is a mini MPV produced by the French manufacturer Renault from August 2004 to December 2012, in Valladolid, Spain.
