Definitions
Vehicle type: Please refer to this webpage for details https://www.nzta.govt.nz/vehicles/vehicle-types/
- ATVs: All-terrain vehicles (vehicles that are principally designed for off-road use, such as quad bikes, smaller ‘side by sides’ and amphibious vehicles)
- Trailers/caravans: Includes boat trailers, horse floats, caravans, flat-deck trailers and other commercial trailers of less than 3.5 tonnes.
Vehicle usage: Classification of how a vehicle is primarily used. This field groups several more detailed usage types
Motive power: Identifies the primary fuel source that powers the vehicle
Import status: The status of a vehicle as it arrives into New Zealand
- New: A vehicle never previously registered or used in any country, that is not built from scratch.
- Scratch: The vehicle was built by an individual from raw materials and registered via LVV certification. Trailers and kit-cars fall under this category.
- Re-Registered: Car was previously registered in the MVR, de-registered from vehicle licencing, and has now been re-entered back into the system.
- Used: Vehicle has been imported into the country from overseas. Excludes those brought in from and overseas factory to be sold as new vehicles via dealership.
Basic colour: The predominant colour of the vehicle
Vehicle year: Year of manufacture or model year. If unknown or the vehicle has been re-registered, this is the year of first registration.
Registration: The process of adding a vehicle to the Motor Vehicle Register: a vehicle, whether new or used, must first be registered before it can be licensed to be used on the road. Registration has been traditionally confused with licensing: registration is normally carried out only once in the lifetime of a vehicle, whereas licensing is generally renewed every six or twelve months.

Limitations of the data
Many fields on the Motor Vehicle Register (MVR) are free text fields and may therefore be subject to spelling mistakes and other human error. The NZTA have algorithmically cleaned the data to correct identified errors, it should be noted that due to the large number of vehicles on the register, some information may not have been corrected in this data.
Inclusions
The data represents the total registered fleet. Inside the registered fleet, there are vehicles that are currently licensed, and those that are not.
Exclusions
The data excludes any vehicles that have been deregistered from the MVR and the ones that were never registered in the first place.
