2025 Polestar 4 Plus EV RWD Electric · OV75 GZX

The DVSA database contains no MOT record for this 2025 Polestar 4 Plus EV, which is unsurprising given that the vehicle is only 18 months old and, as a fully electric model, is exempt from the mandatory MOT until it reaches three years of age. Consequently there is no test history from which to infer a maintenance trend; the absence of recorded failures simply reflects the statutory exemption rather than any indication of the car’s condition. Mileage for the vehicle has not been supplied, so a quantitative comparison with its age cannot be made. For a Polestar 4 Plus that is just under two years old, typical annual mileage on a private‑owner basis would be in the range of 6‑10 000 miles, while a high‑usage fleet vehicle could exceed 15 000 miles per year. In the absence of a recorded odometer reading, the prospective buyer should request a verified mileage figure from the seller, ideally corroborated by the service history, charging session logs, or a recent inspection report, to ensure the vehicle has not accumulated excessive kilometres that could accelerate wear on suspension components, brake pads and the high‑voltage battery cooling system. Given the lack of MOT data and the unknown mileage, the buyer should focus on a thorough physical examination that addresses age‑related degradation rather than wear from high mileage. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or uneven wear that can develop even on low‑kilometre EVs because the rubber ages with time; verify that the tyre tread depth meets legal limits and that the wheels are free of corrosion around the hub and lug nuts. Examine the under‑body for any signs of rust or damage to the battery pack protective casing, especially around the rear suspension where water can collect, and check that the high‑voltage battery cooling system has no leaks and that the coolant is at the correct level and appears clean, as coolant can become contaminated over years of storage. Further EV‑specific checks should include the health of the 12 V auxiliary battery, which can deteriorate quickly if the car has been sitting idle, and the condition of the charging port and cable connectors for signs of corrosion or loose contacts. Verify that the regenerative braking system operates smoothly without pulsation, and listen for any unusual noises from the brake calipers or discs, which may indicate corrosion or sticking after prolonged inactivity. Finally, request evidence of recent software updates and a complete service book; Polestar’s warranty and service plan typically require periodic firmware upgrades and coolant changes at prescribed intervals, so confirming that these have been performed will give confidence that the vehicle’s electronic and thermal management systems are being maintained in line with manufacturer recommendations.
