2023 KIA Sportage 3 ISG HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · FN23 KXS

The Kia Sportage 3 ISG HEV Auto presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA test on 22 January 2026 at 30,974 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. This clean result indicates the vehicle entered 2026 in sound mechanical condition with no advisories or failures on file. Recorded mileage of 30,974 at the January 2026 test equates to roughly 10,325 miles per year across its three-year life, a typical usage rate for this age of vehicle. The single MOT entry provides no evidence of rapid accumulation or extended standing periods. Sparse history limits longitudinal analysis, though the absence of any prior failures or advisories suggests consistent upkeep by the previous keeper. With no faults flagged across suspension, braking, exhaust, or structural components, the buyer faces low documented risk. The clean January 2026 pass means tyres, brake discs, coil springs, and underbody corrosion all met standards at that date. A pre-purchase inspection should still confirm actual tread depth, brake caliper operation, and suspension bush condition, as a six-month-old pass cannot capture wear since the test. Given the hybrid drivetrain, verify the 12V and traction battery health independently of the MOT, which does not assess electrical systems.
