How rare is it?

Rarer than 59% of the 2,408 UK car models we track.

📉 Rate of decline

Disappearing at about 7 a year (7.2% of survivors). At that pace roughly 69 would remain in 5 years, and half the current fleet is gone by around ~2034.

A constant-rate projection from the last 3 years. The last survivors tend to linger far longer than this — cherished cars don't vanish on a fixed date.

About the SAFARI

The Tata Safari is a mid-size SUV produced by the Indian automobile manufacturer Tata Motors since 1998. Safari has been designed as a seven-seater SUV with a foldable third row, roomy interior; on the market it has positioned itself as an alternative from the competitive price to other brands off-road vehicles. The second generation was introduced in 2021. Unlike the first generation, the second-generation Safari is a front-wheel-drive, monocoque crossover SUV, sharing its underpinnings with the Tata Harrier.
