2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Premium EV Electricity · AV71 YLO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on January 2 2026 at 83,282 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable trajectory following a failure in the previous year. While the January 2025 test required immediate attention regarding headlamp alignment and tyre condition, the subsequent test identified only minor cosmetic stone chips in the windscreen, indicating that the primary mechanical and safety-critical issues were addressed. The mileage profile is high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 20,800 miles per year. Between the January 2025 test at 61,037 miles and the January 2026 test at 83,282 miles, the car covered 22,245 miles in a single year. This rapid accumulation suggests heavy motorway use, which typically accelerates the wear on on rubber components, suspension bushings, and brake hardware compared to lower-mileage city driven cars. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the tyres, as the January 2025 failure noted cuts on all four tyres. Although these were not faults at that time, the high mileage suggests they may be nearing the end of their service life. The buyer should also check the suspension geometry for signs of premature wear, as the weight of an electric vehicle places significant stress on the control arms and bushes. Given the headlamp aim failure previously, verifying that the units remain correctly aligned is necessary to ensure optimal visibility during night driving.
