How many Vauxhall Grandlands 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 74,783 DVSA MOT tests.

In 2025, 83.7% of Vauxhall Grandland MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Vauxhall Grandlands tested pass 85.3% of the time, so the Vauxhall Grandland does worse than average for its age, by 1.6 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 85.6%.
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 Vauxhall Grandland from 2018, and still lists it. On the WLTP test (listings 2024 to 2026), official combined fuel economy for its petrol hybrid versions ranges from 44.6 to 52.5 mpg, with CO2 of 122 to 143 g/km; electric versions have an official range of 248 to 440 miles. On the older NEDC test (listings 2018), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and diesel versions ranges from 51.4 to 70.6 mpg, with CO2 of 104 to 128 g/km.
