Car statistics
How many Land Rover Range Rovers are still on the road in Great Britain, how many are declared off the road, how new registrations have changed and which fuels they use. Built from DVLA licensing records and 88,003 DVSA MOT tests.
There were 88,680 Land Rover Range Rovers licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 29,661 declared off the road (SORN). That is the most on the road at any year end since 1994.
Numbers are still rising: the latest count is the highest in this series.

In 2025, 79.4% of Land Rover Range Rover MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Land Rover Range Rovers tested pass 70.6% of the time, so the Land Rover Range Rover does better than average for its age, by 8.8 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 78.3%.
Comparing like with like: each bar pair covers cars of the same age, so an older average age does not count against a model.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.
The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Land Rover Range Rover from 2000, when the data begins, to 2024. On the WLTP test (listings 2019 to 2024), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and diesel versions ranges from 18.7 to 31.5 mpg, with CO2 of 235 to 341 g/km; plug-in hybrid versions are rated at 73.9 to 84.5 mpg (weighted). On the older NEDC test (listings 2000 to 2018), official combined fuel economy for its petrol, diesel, petrol hybrid and diesel hybrid versions ranges from 17.2 to 101.0 mpg, with CO2 of 64 to 398 g/km.

DVSA lists 67 safety recalls for the Land Rover Range Rover since 1992, the first in 1993. The most recent was launched on 25 August 2026.
All 67 Land Rover Range Rover recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Land Rover Range Rover. 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.
