2023 Genesis GV60 Premium Electricity · OV23 ABN

The most recent DVSA MOT test for this 2023 Genesis GV60 Premium was conducted on 12 March 2026 and resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded against the vehicle. With only a single test outcome on file, it is difficult to establish a definitive longitudinal maintenance trend; however, the clean result indicates that at the point of testing the vehicle satisfied all statutory roadworthiness criteria covering lighting, braking, steering, tyres, suspension, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity. Given the vehicle's relative youth and the absence of any recorded advisories suggesting marginal components, the maintenance profile can be regarded as stable and consistent with a well-cared-for example. Prospective buyers should still request the previous MOT certificate to confirm whether any advisories were issued at earlier tests, as only the latest outcome is referenced here. The recorded mileage of 11,392 miles over an approximate three-year ownership period equates to an annual usage of around 3,797 miles, which is notably below the average UK annual mileage of roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles. This lower-than-average accumulation suggests either a primarily urban or short-journey usage pattern, or alternatively extended periods of standing or storage between uses. While low mileage generally equates to reduced wear on mechanical components such as the brake system, clutch (not applicable here given the automatic transmission), and engine internals, it does introduce specific concerns relating to components that degrade through age or inactivity rather than use. The implications of such a usage profile should be carefully considered during physical inspection. For a vehicle of this age and limited mileage, particular attention should be directed towards the condition of the tyres, as rubber compounds deteriorate through age regardless of tread depth. Inspect the sidewalls and tread faces for signs of perishing, micro-cracking, or ozone damage, which can compromise structural integrity even on barely worn tyres. Given the standing periods likely experienced by this car, the brake discs may exhibit surface corrosion, and there is an elevated risk of binding or seized calipers due to infrequent operation. During a test drive, listen for any scraping, grinding, or uneven braking response, and verify that the vehicle pulls up in a straight line without juddering. The 12V auxiliary battery, which is separate from the high-voltage traction pack, should be load-tested, as prolonged periods of low activity can lead to sulphation and reduced capacity. Additionally, check that the high-voltage battery state of health has been maintained, as extended periods at high or very low states of charge without regular cycling can affect long-term performance. Finally, attention should be given to time-based servicing items that do not correlate with mileage. Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should be renewed typically every two to three years irrespective of use; verify the date of the last fluid change via the service documentation. Coolant systems, including those for the electric drive unit and battery thermal management, also require periodic replacement according to manufacturer schedules. The cabin and pollen filters may need attention due to standing exposure. Ensure the complete service history is present, ideally from a Genesis or Hyundai main dealer, confirming that the manufacturer's recommended inspections have been undertaken at the appropriate intervals. It is also prudent to verify that any outstanding manufacturer software updates or recalls have been actioned, as EVs frequently receive over-the-air or workshop-based refinements affecting charging behaviour, driver assistance systems, and battery management. A thorough pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the Genesis E-GMP platform is strongly recommended.
