2021 Mazda MX-30 GT Sport Tech EV Electricity · FL21 XMD

As an electric vehicle, running costs benefit from significantly lower fuel expenses compared to petrol equivalents, though this depends heavily on your use of home charging versus public rapid charging. Tax for EVs is currently favourable, though policy changes are expected.

Maintenance costs are generally lower due to the lack of oil changes, spark plugs, or timing belts. Expect annual costs of approximately £800-£1,200 factoring in insurance, charging, and routine servicing like tyres.

The MOT history shows no recorded defects, which is a positive sign for the vehicle's mechanical presentation. However, as 'tyres' are a top failure reason for this model across the aggregate, closely inspect the tread depth and even wear across the front and rear tyres, as the instant torque and weight of electric cars can accelerate tyre degradation.

Inspect the charging port for any physical damage or corrosion and ensure the locking mechanism operates smoothly. Given the 35,755-mile mileage, check the interior for wear on the steering wheel and driver seat bolster, which may reflect the higher-than-average usage levels.
