2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate EV Electric · SO10 ACE

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate EV presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 November 2025 at 76,755 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since the vehicle was first tested. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-entry MOT history, indicating the car has met statutory standards at every examination without recurring intervention. Mileage accumulation runs high for a 2023 model. The record shows 29,121 miles at the 23 April 2024 test, rising to 40,892 by 4 October 2024, then 54,112 on 21 March 2025, 71,286 on 9 September 2025, and 76,755 by 10 November 2025. That equates to roughly 25,500 miles per year, well above typical private-use averages. The intervals are regular and the gaps between tests are short, so the clean sheet is not a product of sparse data or long standing periods; the car has simply covered distance without generating test failures or advisories. Given the absence of flagged defects across suspension bushes, brake discs, calipers, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the MOT record alone raises no red flags on mechanical or structural integrity. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of high-wear EV components not covered by MOT scope. The original tyres, suspension arm bushes, and brake caliper slide pins will have absorbed heavy motorway mileage and warrant physical measurement. Check the 12V auxiliary battery and traction battery cooling system, as neither falls within MOT testing but degrades under high annual load. The previous owner clearly kept the vehicle to test standard throughout a demanding mileage cycle. Repeated passes with zero advisories suggest disciplined servicing rather than deferred consumable replacement. The buyer inherits a mechanically sound example on paper, though the elevated annual distance means in-person verification of tyre tread depth and brake disc wear remains prudent before purchase.
