2026 Ford Kuga Active HEV CVT Hybrid electric (clean) · GD75 WRR

The DVSA database contains no MOT record for this 2026 Ford Kuga Active HEV CVT, meaning a formal roadworthiness test has not yet been recorded. Without any pass, fail or advisory entries it is impossible to comment on a maintenance trend; the absence of data simply indicates that the vehicle has either not reached its first MOT due date or that the test results have not been uploaded to the public system. Mileage information is likewise unavailable, so a quantitative comparison with the vehicle’s age cannot be made. For a model first registered in 2026 a typical annual mileage would be in the range of 8‑12,000 mi for a privately‑used car, with higher figures (15‑20,000 mi) suggesting a more intensive usage pattern such as fleet or taxi work. In the absence of a recorded odometer reading the buyer should request a verified service book or a dealer‑provided mileage log to confirm that the kilometres accrued are consistent with the expected usage for a vehicle of this age, and to ensure that any warranty mileage limits have not been exceeded. Given the lack of MOT data and the probable low‑to‑moderate mileage, the buyer should focus on time‑related wear items. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or uneven tread wear that can develop even on low‑usage cars, especially if the vehicle has been stored for long periods. Examine the 12‑volt battery terminals for corrosion and assess the health of the hybrid battery pack by checking the vehicle’s onboard diagnostics for any fault codes and confirming that the state‑of‑charge balance is within manufacturer limits. Verify that the CVT fluid has been changed in accordance with Ford’s service schedule, looking for signs of discoloration or a burnt smell, and ensure the coolant and brake fluid have been replaced at the recommended intervals, as fluids degrade with age regardless of distance travelled. A thorough visual and tactile inspection of the suspension components is essential; look for cracked or perished rubber bushes, worn ball joints and any signs of corrosion on the sub‑frame or mounting points, which can appear on vehicles that have spent extended periods idle. Check the brake discs for surface rust, scoring or uneven wear that may indicate binding calipers, and confirm that the pads have sufficient thickness. Finally, run a short test drive, listening for any clunks from the front or rear suspension, shudder through the CVT under acceleration, or vibrations that could point to wheel imbalance or drivetrain issues. Any abnormal noises, vibrations or warning lights should be investigated by a qualified mechanic before committing to purchase.
