2022 KIA Sportage 4 ISG HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · BC22 CBX

The 2022 Kia Sportage 4 ISG HEV Auto presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent DVSA test on 17 March 2026 at 64,614 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the 17 March 2025 examination at 44,083 miles also passed clean. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories confirms the vehicle has shown no worsening mechanical faults across its recorded history. Mileage accumulation sits high for a four-year-old vehicle. The record shows 20,531 miles added between March 2025 and March 2026, averaging roughly 16,154 miles per year since registration. No MOT entries exist before 2025, so early-life usage remains undocumented, but the clean late-stage record suggests consistent main-dealer or diligent private servicing rather than neglect. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, brake disc wear, and underbody corrosion given the elevated annual mileage. The absence of advisories means the tester found no binding calipers, exhaust leaks, or structural concerns at either examination. High-mileage hybrid drivetrain components such as the ISG battery and automatic transmission warrant a diagnostic scan despite the clean MOT trail. The official record alone supports a sound purchase decision on mechanical grounds. Physical verification of tyre tread depth and wiper condition remains sensible, though neither drew tester comment. The Sportage's history reflects responsible upkeep with no recurring defects to date.
