2021 KIA Niro 4 + EV Electricity · GY71 SZX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recurring issue with tyre management. While it passed the most recent test in November 2025 at 47,013 miles, it carried advisories for both nearside and offside front inner tyres being worn close to the legal limit on the edges. This indicates that although the vehicle passed, the underlying cause of uneven wear remains unresolved from the previous year. At 47,013 miles over five years, the car has averaged approximately 9,400 miles per annum, which is consistent with typical UK usage patterns for a modern electric vehicle. There is a clear gap of 12,631 miles between the November 2024 and November 2025 tests, suggesting regular use. TheData is relatively clean regarding mechanical or structural failures, though the frequency of tyre-related defects is the primary concern in the stated history. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry and alignment. The repeated uneven wear on the inner edges of the front tyres across two consecutive years suggests a persistent tracking issue or worn control arm bushes/shock dampers. Additionally, the failure in 2024 regarding a rear tyre with exposed cords indicates a lack of preventative maintenance by previous owners, necessitating a check of the remaining tread depth and age of all four tyres to ensure no structural damage exists.
