2025 Tesla Model Y Performance AWD Electric · TE57 ASK

The most recent MOT record for the 2025 Tesla Model Y Performance shows no entry; consequently there is no MOT outcome to report and no historical data from which to gauge a maintenance trend. As the vehicle is still within the three‑year exemption period for its first statutory test, the absence of an MOT does not itself indicate a problem, but it does mean that any assessment of ongoing service quality must rely on the owner’s own records and visual inspection rather than on DVSA findings. Mileage information is not supplied, so a direct comparison with the vehicle’s age cannot be made. For a 2025 model, typical annual kilometres for a privately‑used EV range between 12,000 and 20,000 mi, equating to roughly 36,000‑60,000 mi after three years. In the absence of an odometer reading, the prospective buyer should request a full service history, any charging‑session logs, and a verification of the current displayed mileage to ensure it aligns with expected use and has not been subject to tampering. Given the lack of MOT data and the uncertainty around mileage, the buyer should concentrate on age‑related inspections. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot, or delamination, and confirm the DOT code to establish the date of manufacture; tyres older than six years should be considered for replacement regardless of tread depth. Inspect the under‑carriage for corrosion, particularly around the battery pack housings, suspension mounting points, and brake caliper brackets, as prolonged standing can accelerate rust on steel components. Assess the condition of the suspension bushings, ball joints and control‑arm mounts for any signs of wear, looseness or audible clunking when the vehicle is rocked over the front and rear wheels. On the test drive, listen for any abnormal whine from the electric motor or gearbox, and verify that regenerative braking engages smoothly without judder or a sudden loss of torque. Observe steering response for any play or vibration, and ensure that the electronic stability control and traction‑control systems intervene as expected. Check that the high‑voltage battery management system reports a healthy state‑of‑health, that the coolant reservoir is at the correct level and free of leaks, and that the charging port and cable connectors are clean and undamaged. Finally, confirm that all software updates have been applied and that any outstanding Tesla recall notices have been addressed, as these are integral to the vehicle’s long‑term reliability and roadworthiness.
