2023 Hyundai Kona Premium EV Electric · FN23 SSO

The vehicle presents a stable and sound roadworthiness status. The most recent MOT test on 16 January 2026 at 19,338 miles passed with zero defects recorded, indicating no immediate mechanical or structural concerns at that time. Given the absence of any advisories or failures, the maintenance trend remains stable, reflecting a vehicle that has required no corrective action to meet UK safety standards. The recorded mileage of 19,338 miles equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 6,446 miles, which is typical for a three-year-old vehicle. The MOT history is notably sparse, consisting solely of the single pass in January 2026. There are no prior test records to establish a longer-term mileage trajectory or identify rapid accumulation. The lack of historical data means the vehicle's usage pattern prior to this test remains unverified, though the current odometer reading suggests light, consistent use rather than prolonged standing or high-mileage fleet operation. With no recurring faults or structural advisories flagged in the official record, the buyer's in-person inspection should focus on verifying the general condition of consumables and EV-specific systems. A thorough assessment of the tyre tread depth and suspension bushes is prudent, as these components endure wear regardless of the clean MOT status. The electric powertrain and high-voltage battery health require specialist diagnostic checks, as standard MOT tests do not evaluate battery degradation or electric motor efficiency. Inspecting the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion is also advisable, given that lighter usage can sometimes lead to uneven rust buildup rather than the smooth wear seen in higher-mileage driving. The absence of historical defects provides a solid baseline, but a physical inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle's day-to-day condition.
