UK vehicle statistics / E-MAX

How many E-MAX VSA motorcycles are left?

At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 108 licensed and 8 SORN vehicles in the UK within the E-MAX VSA generic-model group.

Looking at a VSA?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular VSA is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the VSA disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 119 in 2024 Q2 and stand at 108 in 2026 Q1, down 9%. A further 8 are declared SORN — 1 in 15 of the 116 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.
