Our Verdict
A solid choice for those seeking a modern, high-spec city hybrid. While the mileage is higher than average for its age, the clean MOT record suggests the vehicle has maintained basic mechanical standards.
Given the mileage of approximately 18,000 miles per year, your first priority should be verifying the full service history. Ensure all oil changes have been performed according to Hyundai's schedule, as small-displacement turbocharged engines are sensitive to maintenance intervals. Check that the hybrid battery is still under warranty, as this is a key component of the MHEV system.
As this is the 'Ultimate' trim, inspect the high-tech features such as the digital cockpit and driver assistance systems to ensure they are functioning correctly. Because the car has been used frequently, look for signs of tyre wear and brake component life which may be nearing replacement sooner than lower-mileage examples.
The 1.0cc MHEV engine is designed for urban efficiency, likely sitting in a lower-to-mid range insurance group. You can expect respectable fuel economy in stop-start traffic, though motorway driving will see these figures.
Maintenance costs are generally predictable for Hyundai models, though the higher mileage means you may encounter wear-and-tear items more frequently. Estimated annual costs costs typically fall between £1,200 and £1,500.
The MOT history is notably clean, with no defects recorded in either the 2024 or 2025 tests. This suggests no structural or major mechanical issues have been flagged recently. However, you should still inspect for any oil leaks around the engine, which can occur on high-mileage turbo vehicles.
Pay close attention to the tyres; at 72,000 miles, the car is likely on its second or third set of rubber. Check the suspension bushings for any creaking, as high-mileage use can put more stress on the lower components of the chassis.
This 2021 Hyundai Bayon Ultimate is a high-specification MHEV variant featuring the 1.0cc turbo engine. Having covered over 72,000 miles, it has seen more use than the typical five-year-old car. However, it has passed its last two MOT tests in 2024 and 2025 with zero defects recorded, indicating a consistent pass on safety inspections.
Hyundai models generally hold a good reputation for reliability, though MHEV systems require consistent servicing to maintain hybrid efficiency.
