2022 KIA Xceed 3 Phev S-A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · FH22 HZB

The Kia XCeed 3 PHEV S-A presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA test on 19 August 2025 at 26,285 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle met all statutory requirements at that point and showed no advisories or outstanding faults. The recorded mileage of 26,285 at the August 2025 test equates to roughly 6,571 miles per year since first registration in 2022, a figure consistent with typical private use for a four-year-old vehicle. The single MOT entry on file gives a clean but sparse history; no earlier tests appear, so we cannot chart wear progression or identify recurring issues across multiple cycles. Low annual mileage of this order suggests lighter mechanical loading, though extended standing periods can still encourage tyre degradation and brake corrosion unseen in the record. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. With only one test logged and no advisories, the official data shows no flagged concerns around suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural integrity. However, the absence of historical entries means prior upkeep between registration and the 2025 test is unverified by MOT evidence. Given the hybrid drivetrain and PHEV configuration, examine the 12V battery condition, charging port seals, and high-voltage system fault codes in person. Verify tyre sidewall age and brake caliper freedom, as standing time at low mileage can mask binding calipers or flat-spotting not captured in a single clean pass.
