MVRIS: First registration of new vehicles

The Motor Vehicle Registration Information System (MVRIS) is the most comprehensive and authoritative source of new registration details in the UK. The database is the result of co-operation between the SMMT, vehicle manufacturers / importers and the DVLA. (Motorcycles and agricultural vehicles are outside the scope of MVRIS as these are handled by separate trade associations: MCIA and AEA respectively).

SMMT’s registration figures provide unique insight to the UK vehicle market. On the fourth working day of each month, new vehicle registration figures are released on the SMMT web site, split by make and vehicle type.

Detailed analysis of the figures can be purchased through SMMT’s Automotive Information Services (AIS) department via the links below, including regional / postcode information, sales type (private / fleet / business), CO2 emissions, etc.

MVRIS reports can be tailored to your exact requirements. Drawing on an in-depth knowledge of the motor industry our dedicated personnel will work with you to determine the most cost-effective service to meet your requirements.

Please choose a category from the list below for further information, samples and descriptions on the data available. To purchase the data or for more details please e-mail data@smmt.co.uk.

Prices for purchasing MVRIS reports are dependent on the scope of the data required and are available on request. SMMT members receive a 50% discount on MVRIS reports (except for bulk data contracts or where data is published or redistributed).
