About this data
Ordinary hybrids and plug-in hybrids are shown separately when matching model propulsion data establishes the type. Fuel labels alone cannot establish the hybrid type. Unknown means the available data could not establish the powertrain.
Shares include all registrations in the selection, including unknown values. Unknown: 3,711 (0.6%).

How old is the fleet?
Data table
Age is snapshot year minus manufacturing year, not exact time on the road. Age shares and the median use only records with usable manufacturing years.

Still registered: a same-year comparison · 2011
Active ÷ (active + recorded cancellations), for all model-year cohorts with at least 500 recorded vehicles. When a manufacturing year is selected, it also sets the comparison year.
371 model-year cohorts are omitted from this comparison: each has fewer than 500 vehicles manufactured in 2011, counting active registrations and recorded cancellations together.
How to read this comparison
The ratio includes only active registrations and recorded cancellations, not all original registrations. Registration retention is not mechanical reliability. Cancellations can have many causes; this data does not measure breakdowns or repair costs. Recorded cancellations begin in 2000, so only observed counts are shown for earlier model years; retention percentages are withheld. Models absent from the active registry are excluded, so this is not a complete survival study.
Explore every eligible model
Search and compare all model-year cohorts with at least 500 recorded registrations. Sort by cohort size or the share still registered.

Sources and methodology
Data snapshot:
The most common powertrain is petrol (85.4%). 1.6% of these vehicles are electric or hybrid.
The source covers private vehicles manufactured from 1996 and commercial vehicles up to 3,500 kg manufactured from 1998. Motorcycles, heavy vehicles, and records without usable model identifiers are excluded. These are registration counts, not sales or a count of every vehicle in Israel.
Fleet shares use the selected population shown above. Model groups follow normalized registry names or model codes; different recorded variants of one model family may remain separate. The rankings tab includes all matching groups.
Family view combines only reviewed aliases. Unmapped recorded groups stay separate; totals and fleet shares keep the same denominator.
Snapshot records missing from per-model totals: 0. These records cannot be assigned to a brand or year from this aggregate and are excluded when filtering.
