2022 Volvo XC40 Plus Recharge Twin EV AWD Electric · DA72 LPV

The Volvo XC40 passed its most recent MOT on 30 October 2025 at 52,269 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend at present. The prior day's test on 29 October 2025 at 52,248 miles returned a failure with no defects listed, a pattern consistent with an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle currently shows roadworthy status with no outstanding advisories from the latest examination. Recorded mileage stands at 52,269 against a four-year-old EV, equating to roughly 13,067 miles per year. That is high for this model's age and points to sustained regular use rather than long standing periods. The history shows only two entries thirteen months after the prior cycle would be expected, leaving a sparse early-life record. No rapid accumulation between tests appears, with just 21 miles logged between the October 2025 failure and pass. The clean pass with zero advisories means the tester found no concerns across brakes, suspension bushes, steering, structural integrity, or corrosion at 52,269 miles. Given the high annual mileage, a buyer should still verify in person the condition of consumable items not always caught at test: tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and brake disc wear. The twin-motor AWD drivetrain and high-voltage battery warrant a health check via Volvo diagnostic software. The back-to-back failure and pass with no defects suggests the first centre rejected the car on a non-mechanical ground, possibly registration mismatch. This implies no neglect of basic upkeep from the recorded data. Inspect the vehicle physically to confirm the sparse history reflects genuine care rather than missed early tests.
