2021 KIA Niro 4 + EV Electric · CX71 ORL

The Kia Niro 4 + EV shows a stable maintenance trend with a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 23 October 2025 at 44,844 miles passed with no defects recorded, though the same date also logged a failed attempt with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or pre-check rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the 24 October 2024 test at 33,266 miles passed with no advisories, confirming twelve months of fault-free operation. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,969 miles based on the two records, which is typical for a five-year-old vehicle of this type. The gap between October 2024 and October 2025 saw 11,578 miles added, a slight uplift on the average but within normal private-use bounds. The supplied history is sparse and clean, with no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake disc scoring, or exhaust emission failures flagged across either examination. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items not always caught in a pass, notably tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and cabin filters. The twin October 2025 entries at identical mileage warrant a check of the DVSA failure reason code, as a no-defect fail can indicate a documentation mismatch or lighting function test anomaly rather than structural risk. Given the absence of recorded advisories on coil springs, binding calipers, or underbody rust, the mechanical outlook is sound. Verify the 2025 failure was clerical and confirm battery health through a separate EV diagnostic, since MOT testing does not assess high-voltage system degradation.
