Dataset · Transport
New vehicle registrations in Kerala by vehicle class (63 Vahan classes such as M-CYCLE/SCOOTER, MOTOR CAR, THREE WHEELER (PASSENGER), GOODS CARRIER, BUS). One row per registering office, vehicle class and month: Kerala's 85 Regional and Sub-Regional Transport Offices (KL1 to KL86) and the State Transport Authority (KL99), with the number of new vehicles registered, from January 2015 to October 2026, as counted by the national Vahan 4 dashboard. Each office carries its district (from the town it is named after) and LGD code; KL15 (the KSRTC fleet) and KL99 register vehicles for the whole state. Use it to follow vehicle demand by district and month, and the shift between two-wheelers, cars, autorickshaws and goods vehicles.
