What the numbers say about the Suzuki Wagon R+
The number of Suzuki Wagon R+s on the road is down 18.1% on a year earlier, behind the +1.5% for all cars and behind Suzuki as a whole (+1.2%). It peaked at 22,752 at the end of June 2016 and has fallen 77.7% since.
Only 0 were first registered in the UK from July 2025 to June 2026, so the Suzuki Wagon R+ is effectively no longer sold new here: the number on the road can only shrink as cars are scrapped, exported or taken off the road.
100% of licensed Suzuki Wagon R+s are petrol, against 54% of all cars. There are almost no electric or plug-in versions on the road.
100% of those licensed at the end of 2025 were first used in 2015 or earlier (all cars: 44%), and 31.9% of registered Suzuki Wagon R+s are SORN against 9.9% of all cars, a sign of cars kept off the road as projects, second cars or awaiting repair.

How old Suzuki Wagon R+s on the road are
Official data from DfT table VEH0124: cars licensed and SORN at 31 December 2025 in the whole UK, by the year the car was first used (for a car imported used, that is its first use abroad). This table is annual and UK-wide, so its total (5,675 licensed) differs from the quarterly Great Britain figure.
| First used | Licensed | Share of licensed | SORN |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2008 | 9 | 0.2% | 0 |
| 2007 | 421 | 7.4% | 64 |

Limitations
Licensed means taxed or tax-exempt and allowed on the road at the quarter end; SORN cars are registered but declared off the road. DfT groups cars by its own “generic model” (SUZUKI WAGON R+), which 73 Auto maps to the Suzuki Wagon R+; body styles and derivatives sold under that name are included. The Great Britain quarterly figures and the UK annual age table are separate official tables, so their totals differ slightly.
