2022 KIA Niro 2 Phev S-A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · LD72 VBY

The 2022 Kia Niro 2 PHEV S-A is currently roadworthy, having passed its MOT on 2 October 2025 at 56,536 miles with no defects recorded. The single test confirms a stable maintenance trend, showing no recent failures. At four years of age, the vehicle has accumulated 14,134 miles annually, a rate higher than typical for a model of this vintage, yet the absence of earlier MOT entries means no longer‑term trend can be established; the most recent test, conducted less than nine months ago, confirms continued compliance. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components most susceptible to wear at high mileage: inspect the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or corrosion, verify that the brake calipers move freely and that the discs show no scoring or excessive wear, examine tyre tread depth and evenness, and check the underbody and wheel arches for structural rust or damage that could affect structural integrity. Given the clean MOT result, the vehicle appears well maintained, but the high annual mileage warrants a thorough in‑person assessment of the drivetrain, cooling system and PHEV‑specific components such as the high‑voltage battery coolant lines and charging port to ensure no latent issues have developed since the last test.
