How many Hyundai Trajets are left in Great Britain?
There were 186 Hyundai Trajets licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 608 declared off the road (SORN).
That is 98.1% fewer than the peak of 9,631 in 2007.
Hyundai Trajets licensed in Great Britain
Numbers peaked in 2007 and have fallen every year since, as older cars are scrapped faster than new ones are registered.
There were not enough MOT tests of Hyundai Trajets in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Hyundai Trajet registrations over time
Registrations of Hyundai Trajets for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 2,085 in 2002. In 2025, 0 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

How we use engine sizes.
Hyundai Trajet fuel economy and CO2
The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Hyundai Trajet from 2000, when the data begins, to 2007. On the NEDC test (listings 2000 to 2007), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and diesel versions ranges from 25.0 to 39.2 mpg, with CO2 of 192 to 271 g/km.
Official NEDC figures by engine and fuel, listed 2000 to 2007
Official NEDC figures by engine and fuel, listed 2000 to 2007
Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in
real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in
VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was
listed.
Matched from VCA’s model name “Trajet”. How we use VCA’s figures.
Hyundai Trajet safety recalls
DVSA lists 4 safety recalls for the Hyundai Trajet since 1992, the first in 2003. The most recent was launched on 20 September 2010.
Suspension may fail
Launched 20 September 2010DVSA recall R/2010/091
Defect
Trajet and Sante Fe - Corrosion may build up and weaken the rear suspension arms to an extent where they could fail and the directional control of the vehicle could be affected. Sante Fe models additionally have a similar concern with the front sub-frame.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to test the thickness of the metal of the suspension arms. If the corrosion is not too advanced the arms/sub-frame will be wax oiled. If the corrosion is advanced the suspension arms will have to be changed.
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Hyundai Trajet. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or
incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a
dealer. How we match recalls to models.
