2015 Hyundai IX35 1.7L Diesel · G17 KAD

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent inspection in April 2026 with 55,624 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a significant failure in April 2025. While the 2025 test highlighted several mechanical areas requiring attention, the subsequent pass without any advisories indicates that the necessary repairs were addressed, bringing the vehicle back up to regulatory standards. The mileage profile is notably low for an artwork-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent, light usage patterns, moving from 34,380 miles in April 2023 to 55,624 miles by 2026. This low annual mileage suggests less overall mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain compared to high-mileage counterparts, though it does mean that rubber-based components and seals may be subject to age degradation rather than distance. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the braking system during a physical inspection, as the 2025 failure specifically cited thin front brake pads, worn discs, and poor service brake efficiency. Although these were reportedly rectified, the low-use nature of the car can sometimes lead to caliper seizing or surface corrosion if left stationary. Additionally, the 2025 record noted perishing and cracking on the rear tyres; the buyer should verify that these tyres have been replaced recently, as the age-related degradation does not require immediate replacement despite having remaining tread depth.
