Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This Suzuki Ignis demonstrates an exemplary record of roadworthiness, characterized by a total absence of defects or advisories across its testing history. The inspection on 3 June 2025 confirmed a clean bill of health, maintaining a stable trend of mechanical integrity that indicates all critical safety components are currently meeting DVSA standards. With 44,601 miles recorded over approximately four years, the vehicle has averaged around 11,150 miles per annum. This usage profile is typical for a modern city car, indicating a consistent operational history without prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive heavy-duty use. Mechanically, this level of accumulation implies that while the vehicle is well within its design life, it is entering a phase where standard wear-and-tear items such as brake pads and tyre treads will require regular monitoring. Given the absence of recorded faults, the physical inspection should focus on the operational smoothness of the CVT transmission and the integration of the mild-hybrid system. During the test drive, listen for any undue whining or shuddering during acceleration, which can sometimes manifest in CVT units as they age. Ensure the transition between the electric motor assistance and the internal combustion engine is seamless and devoid of erratic surges. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and steering rack for any play, as these components endure the most stress in urban environments. While the MOT history is clean, a tactile check of the brake pedal for firmness and the absence of any vibration during deceleration will confirm that the braking system remains in optimal condition. Ensure there are no audible knocks or rattles from the underbody when traversing uneven surfaces.

Our Verdict

A sensible choice for those seeking a mo

When viewing this specific yellow Ignis, check the condition of all four tyres immediately. The January 2025 MOT recorded issues with both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and one tyre having a cut, which may indicate frequent driving on rougher roads or potential alignment issues.

Request evidence of recent tyre replacements to ensure the issues noted in early 2025 have been fully rectified. Given the higher-than-average mileage for a 2022 vehicle, ask for a detailed service history to confirm that the 1.2L DualJet engine has been maintained according to Suzuki's schedule.

The 1197cc hybrid electric engine is designed for efficiency, typically placing this model in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to non-hybrid competitors. Fuel economy should be competitive for an urban crossover.

Maintenance costs for the Ignis are generally considered manageable, though the higher mileage on this specific unit means you should budget for more frequent consumable replacements, such as brakes and tyres, sooner than a lower-mileage example.

Focus your inspection on the front end of the vehicle. The January 2025 MOT failure/advisory regarding nearside front tyre cuts and edge wear suggests you should check for uneven tyre wear on the rear as well, which can point to suspension or tracking problems.

Additionally, while not flagged in this vehicle's specific history, the aggregate data for this model shows windscreen wipers and parking brake levers as common failure points. Test these components thoroughly during your test drive to ensure they are in good working order.

This 2022 Suzuki Ignis SZ5 DualJet MHEV is a modern mild-hybrid finished in a distinctive yellow. With 47,552 miles recorded at its June 2026 MOT, it has covered significantly more than the model average of 4,203 miles per year. While the most recent MOT shows no defects, previous records highlight specific tyre wear and damage issues.

The Suzuki Ignis shows a high average MOT pass rate of 93.8% across 2,433 analysed vehicles, suggesting generally consistent mechanical standards.
