2022 Hyundai Ioniq 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · AV22 SYU

This Hyundai Ioniq has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT test on 4 June 2025 confirming no defects and a full pass. The absence of advisories or fail items in that record suggests the vehicle met all current UK standards at 27,666 miles, though the sparse history limits long-term trend analysis. Without prior test failures or recurring issues, there is no evidence of worsening mechanical conditions, though the lack of intermediate MOTs—particularly between 2023 and 2025—prevents confirmation of consistent maintenance. The recorded mileage of 27,666 miles over approximately four years equates to an average of 6,916 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no gaps or spikes in mileage to suggest prolonged neglect or rapid wear, though the absence of intermediate service records means no verification of scheduled maintenance (e.g., brake fluid changes, suspension servicing, or corrosion protection). The low mileage relative to its age could indicate light use or periods of storage, which may have mitigated some wear, but it also raises questions about why the vehicle was not tested more frequently. Given the limited MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components not covered by the test. Focus on the suspension system—particularly coil springs, bushes, and dampers—for signs of uneven wear or corrosion, as these are not routinely checked in an MOT. The brakes should be scrutinised for uneven pad thickness, binding calipers, or excessive disc wear, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Additionally, inspect the underbody for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and subframes, as the Ioniq’s electric powertrain does not shield these areas from environmental damage. The battery and cooling system, while beyond MOT scope, warrant attention given the vehicle’s age and the potential for thermal management issues in EVs.
