2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Premium EV Electric · FN22 OBC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in the February 2026 MOT test at 73,672 miles where no defects were recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from February 2025 at 52,962 miles. The consistent absence of advisories across both tests suggests the previous owners have maintained high mechanical standards despite the high usage rate. The mileage profile is significantly high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 18,400 miles per year. Between the February 2025 and February 2026 tests, the car covered 20,710 miles, indicating intensive long-distance use. This pattern suggests the car likely served as a dedicated motorway or commuter vehicle. While the MOT record shows no mechanical failures, the high rate of accumulation places accelerated stress on wear items and the suspension geometry compared to lower-mileage examples. Given the high annual mileage, a physical inspection should focus on the components most susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. A buyer must examine the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for signs of premature wear or cracking which can accelerate under heavy use. The braking system requires close scrutiny for uneven pad wear or scored discs, as high-frequency driving can lead to thermal stress on the braking components. Furthermore, verify the tyre condition for uneven wear patterns that indicate alignment issues caused by the high-mileage cycles. While the EV drivetrain is generally robust, the high-recorded mileage justifies a thorough check of the underbody for any physical damage or corrosion that might not have been flagged during a standard MOT inspection.
