2022 Hyundai Ioniq Electricity · LT72 TWC

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 14 April 2026 at 22,522 miles with no recorded defects, confirming its current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend is demonstrably stable, as the preceding test on 21 July 2025 at 18,908 miles also resulted in a clean pass with no advisories. This consistent, defect-free record over the last nine months indicates a vehicle that has been maintained to the required legal standard without recurring mechanical issues. The recorded mileage of 22,522 miles for a four-year-old vehicle equates to an average of approximately 5,630 miles per year, which is low. The nine-month interval between the two tests saw a modest accumulation of 3,614 miles, a figure consistent with this low annual usage pattern. There are no significant gaps in testing or periods of rapid mileage increase that would suggest neglect or unusual operational stress; the sparse but regular testing history aligns with the low-mileage profile. A buyer should conduct an in-person inspection focusing on components susceptible to degradation from low or intermittent use. Examine all tyres, including the spare, for age-related cracking and correct inflation, as low annual mileage can mask tyre age. Inspect the brake discs and calipers for signs of corrosion or binding, which can occur with infrequent braking. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for any deterioration, and scrutinise the underbody and wheel arches for any signs of structural corrosion, particularly around the battery tray in this hybrid. Finally, verify the condition and charge of the 12-volt battery, as long periods of stationary operation can shorten its service life. The absence of MOT defects is positive, but a physical assessment remains essential for a complete picture.
