2021 Hyundai Kona Ultimate EV Electric · SC21 FWA

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 2nd September 2026 with no defects recorded. Looking at the historical data, the maintenance trend is highly stable. Aside from a single failure in August 2024 concerning a defective wiper blade and a dangerous tyre condition involving exposed cords, the vehicle has consistently passed its inspections without advisories. This indicates a consistent standard of upkeep and suggests that any mechanical or safety issues are being rectified promptly. The recorded mileage of 67,514 miles over approximately five years represents an annual average of 13,500 miles, which is considered high for this vehicle class. While the electric drivetrain is designed for longevity, this level of usage places significantly more stress on the chassis and consumables than a low-mileage example. Prospective buyers should be aware that higher mileage typically accelerates the wear of suspension components, steering rack tolerances, and tyre compounds. During a physical inspection, priority should be given to the suspension and steering systems. Given the mileage, listen for any clunks or knocks when traversing uneven surfaces, which could indicate worn suspension bushes or failing coil springs. Examine the tyres for uneven wear patterns, as high-mileage vehicles often suffer from alignment drift. Although the MOT history is currently clean, it is essential to verify that the tyre treads are consistent across both axles and that there is no evidence of sidewall perishing or previous poor repairs. Particular attention must be paid to the braking system. Because electric vehicles rely heavily on regenerative braking, the physical brake discs and calipers are used less frequently and are prone to surface corrosion or binding calipers. Ensure the brake pedal feels firm and that the vehicle does not pull to one side under braking. Additionally, verify the service history for calendar-based maintenance, specifically the replacement of the 12V auxiliary battery and the flushing of the brake fluid, as these degrade over time regardless of the mileage.
