2022 KIA Niro 2 EV Electric · SW72 AKU

The Kia Niro 2 EV presents a stable roadworthiness status. The most recent DVSA test on 11 November 2025 at 18,266 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration across the available history, with a single clean test result indicating the vehicle met all required standards at that point. The recorded mileage of 18,266 miles against a 2022 model year gives an average of roughly 4,566 miles per year. This is low for the vehicle's age and suggests light use or extended standing periods. The MOT history contains only the November 2025 entry at that mileage, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests can be assessed from the supplied data. The sparse record shows a clean result but offers limited insight into earlier condition. A buyer should still carry out a physical inspection despite the clean test. Low mileage EVs left standing can develop flat-spotted tyres, degraded 12-volt batteries, and seized brake calipers from disuse. The November 2025 tester recorded no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion, yet these components warrant hands-on checks given the car's likely idle periods. Verify the actual battery state of charge, inspect tyre sidewalls for cracking, and confirm the brakes release freely after stationary storage. The absence of recorded faults does not remove the need for a pre-purchase examination of consumables and mechanical items the MOT may not capture.
