Every car registered in Kerry so far in 2021 – full list – a total of 126 different models listed from most-popular to rarest!

The Society of the Irish Motor Industry has released their official new vehicle statistics to the end of March and Kerry Motorsport News can now, exclusively, list every car sold in Kerry for the first three months of 2021. 

The Hyundai Tucson remain the county’s  favourite new car with 76 versions sold in Kerry so far this year. 

But the current closure so how much car sales in the county are effect. At the end of March, 73 new Tucson’s were registered in Kerry meaning just three hit the road in the last month. 

The Ford Focus remains at two, the five units sold in Kerry in the last month bring the total to 51. 

There is a new make in at number three – the Kia Sportage added eight units to brings the total to 44 and at the expense of Toyota’s Corolla which added three to its February tally of 40 cars. 

To present a more accurate picture of the new vehicle registrations it is important to point out that many cars sold in Kerry could end up in neighbouring counties like Limerick, Cork or Clare and that some, especially high end models end up with Dublin registration plates. 

This table presents an accurate figure of the number of cars registered in Kerry for the first three months of the year but not the number sold!
