Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2022 model year cars.
- 12V Battery Drain (HEV/PHEV)Moderate
A major talking point for UK NQ5 owners. The 12V battery can drain unexpectedly when the car is parked, often due to the car not entering "deep sleep" or parasitic draw from connected services.
- 48V Mild-Hybrid System FaultsModerate
The MHEV system can trigger warning lights or fail to provide electrical assistance if the 48V battery or its control unit develops a fault.
- DCT Gearbox JudderModerate
While the HEV and PHEV use a smooth 6-speed torque converter auto, the petrol-only MHEV uses the 7-speed DCT which can still suffer from low-speed judder.
