358,578 Volkswagen Tiguan cars are licensed in the UK, and another 5,505 are declared off the road (SORN). That's the most there have ever been on the road. Over the last five years the number on the register has risen by 50%.
Yearly figures to 2007, then every quarter. Figures cover Great Britain until June 2014 and the whole UK from September 2014, marked on the chart, when Northern Ireland records were added. SORN was only recorded from the end of 2007, so earlier totals show licensed cars only. Small dips at each year end are usually seasonal: some owners SORN their cars for winter.
