2022 Nissan Qashqai Tekna E-Power Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · CU72 VRX

The recorded DVSA test history for this 2022 Nissan Qashqai Tekna e-Power is exceptionally sparse, with only a single MOT pass recorded on 17 September 2025 against a mileage reading of 53,858 miles and no advisories, failures, or component-specific defects logged. Because the vehicle would not have required an MOT test until its fourth anniversary of registration, this single late-2025 entry is the only statutory roadworthiness check the car has undergone in its first four years. While a clean pass with no advisories is objectively a positive data point, it provides only a snapshot view of the braking, suspension, lighting, tyre and emissions condition at one moment, and cannot establish the consistency of mechanical condition across the intervening years. There is no historical pattern of recurring advisories or deterioration that can be tracked from this dataset alone, which means any evaluation of long-term wear trends must lean heavily on the mileage profile rather than test outcomes. Against an annual average of roughly 13,464 miles since first registration, this Qashqai has been driven at a rate notably above the typical 7,000 to 9,000 miles per year expected of a privately owned family SUV in the UK. Higher annual accumulation of this magnitude places proportionally greater demand on the consumable wear items that are not fully captured by a single clean test, including brake pad and disc material, tyre tread life, drive belt condition, suspension bushing compliance, and the e-Power specific components such as the electric drive motor reduction gearing, inverter cooling system and high-voltage battery thermal management hardware. There are no unusual mileage gaps or inconsistencies within the provided data, and the single recorded odometer reading is consistent with steady daily use rather than long stationary periods or abrupt accumulation spikes. Mechanically, this sustained usage pattern means the buyer should reasonably expect the vehicle to be approaching, rather than distant from, the first scheduled replacement intervals for items such as brake fluid, cabin and pollen filters, and possibly tyres, depending on rotation history and axle loading. From a buyer guidance perspective, the absence of flagged advisories means the MOT history does not direct attention toward any specific subsystem, so a physical inspection should focus on the components most likely to have reached measurable wear given the mileage. On a test drive, listen for any clonking or knocking from the front suspension over speed humps or uneven road surfaces, particularly from the lower control arm bushes and anti-roll bar drop links, as these are common wear points on Qashqai chassis of this generation. Check for pulling under braking or a spongy pedal feel that could indicate binding front caliper sliders or glazed pads, and inspect the brake discs visually for a pronounced outer lip exceeding approximately 1mm, which would suggest they are nearing replacement. Steering should remain centred and free of vibration at motorway speeds, and any shimmy through the wheel on autobahn-style A-road sections could point to tyre balance issues, warped front discs, or front suspension geometry wear. Given the e-Power powertrain, particular attention should also be paid during inspection to any unusual hesitation, juddering, or vibration under throttle load, as the integration of the petrol range extender and electric drive units can mask drivetrain wear that would not appear on an MOT test. Verify that the regenerative braking function operates smoothly across different intensity settings and that the transition between electric drive and petrol-generated charging is free of clunks or noticeable fluctuations in cabin noise. Underneath the vehicle, look for any signs of oil seepage around the engine and reduction gear area, as well as condition of the exhaust system hangers and mountings, which are vulnerable to corrosion even on relatively young vehicles. Finally, confirm that all tyres are of matching make, tread depth is consistent across the axle, and there is no uneven shoulder wear that would indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues arising from the higher-than-average annual mileage this vehicle has accumulated.
