2017 Hyundai Ioniq Electricity · LW66 EMX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of tyre neglect. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 54,420 miles passed, it revealed advisories for both the offside front and offside rear inner tyres being worn close to the legal limit and on the edge. This follows a failure in January 2025 where the nearside front inner tyre was below the legal tread depth requirement. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between the 2023 test at 23,551 miles and the 2026 test at 54,420 miles, the car covered 30,869 miles, indicating a steady usage pattern. The 10,483-mile gap between the January 2024 and 2025 tests suggests regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which generally benefits the condition of rubber components and prevents brake caliper seizing. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the wheel alignment and suspension geometry. The repeated wear on the inner edges of the tyres across multiple tests indicates a persistent tracking issue or worn suspension bushes that has not been addressed. Checking the front control arms and shock absorbers is essential to ensure that mechanical wear is not causing premature tyre degradation. Since no structural corrosion or mechanical failures have been recorded in the history, the focus remains entirely on these consumable items and the underlying cause causing the uneven wear.
