2025 Hyundai Kona Advance EV Electricity · DP25 KWM

As of the most recent official DVSA records, no MOT test history is available for this 2025 Hyundai Hyundai Kona Advance EV. This is not an adverse finding in itself, as the vehicle may simply not yet have required an MOT test; under current UK regulations, cars do not need an MOT until they are three years old, meaning this nearly year old vehicle would not have been tested since first registration. Consequently, there are no recorded pass outcomes, failure points, or advisories to evaluate, and no maintenance trend can be established from official test data alone. The recorded mileage for this vehicle is not documented, and there is insufficient data to compare annual usage against its age. As an EV with likely minimal mileage accumulation typical of a recent registration, prospective buyers should be cautious about very low mileage creep, which can bring its own set of mechanical concerns. Standing vehicles suffer from brake disc corrosion and binding calipers due to infrequent use, 12 volt auxiliary battery degradation from constant low current drain without regular charging cycles to maintain it, and potential deterioration of tyre sidewalls and rubber components through age rather than wear. Given the complete absence of MOT data and the unknown mileage profile, a prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection. Check all tyres for age-related perishing and cracking on the sidewalls, paying particular attention to the production date stamp on the sidewall, as even unworn tyres older than five years may require replacement due to rubber degradation. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, which is normal on a standing vehicle but should clear quickly upon application; persistent judder or pulling may indicate seized caliper slide pins or heavily pitted discs requiring refurbishment. Verify the condition and state of charge of the 12 volt auxiliary battery, as EVs rely on this for systems operation and a weak battery can cause numerous warning lights and system faults. Additionally, confirm the high voltage battery state of health through the onboard diagnostic menu or a Hyundai dealer read, and review the service book or digital service history to evidence that essential items such as brake fluid, coolant, and reduction gear oil have been changed at manufacturer-specified intervals, as these fluids degrade with time regardless of mileage. Finally, ensure all warning lights extinguish correctly on system power-up and that the charging system functions without fault codes.
