2020 Suzuki Swift SZ-T Dualjet Mhev CVT 1.2L Hybrid electric (clean) · KP70 KMF

The Suzuki Swift SZ-T Dualjet MHEV CVT passed its most recent MOT on 3 December 2025 at 36,644 miles with no defects recorded. This represents a clean, uninterrupted record across three consecutive annual tests dating back to November 2023. No advisories were issued in any of these tests, indicating that the vehicle has maintained roadworthiness without recurring mechanical or structural concerns. The maintenance trend is stable, with no evidence of deteriorating components or deferred repairs accumulating over time. The recorded mileage of 36,644 miles for a vehicle of approximately six years translates to roughly 6,100 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical UK annual usage patterns. The mileage progression between tests shows consistent accumulation: 8,766 miles were covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and 7,951 miles between November 2024 and December 2025. This steady usage pattern suggests regular but moderate commuting rather than heavy wear or prolonged standing. There are no anomalous jumps or gaps in the record that would indicate irregular ownership or suspicious mileage discrepancies. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still conduct thorough in-person inspections of certain components not fully assessed during the test. The CVT automatic transmission warrants particular attention: check for hesitation or judder during gear shifts, and listen for unusual whining or hesitation under load. The mild hybrid system's 12-volt battery and integrated starter-generator should be tested, as these components degrade over time and are not covered by standard emissions checks. Brake callipers, discs, and pads should be examined for binding or uneven wear, particularly given the stop-start nature of urban driving typical for this model. Tyre condition and wheel alignment should also be verified, as these consumables can deteriorate without triggering MOT advisories if they remain above minimum thresholds. Finally, inspect the suspension for worn bushes or dampers, which can develop gradually without appearing as immediate failures.
