2022 Hyundai Tucson N Line S T-GDI HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric · YP22 VCV

The vehicle presents a stable and currently sound roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 24 April 2026 at 46,388 miles passed with zero defects, indicating all major mechanical and structural systems are functioning correctly. A retest on the same day at 46,389 miles failed solely for both windscreen wipers failing to clear the screen effectively, a minor consumable issue that was evidently rectified immediately given the subsequent clean pass. The maintenance trend is stable, with no recurring mechanical or structural failures across the recorded history. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a 2022-registered Tucson. Between the April 2025 test at 26,018 miles and the April 2026 test at 46,388 miles, the vehicle covered 20,370 miles in twelve months, which is above the typical annual average of roughly 11,600 miles per year over its life. This suggests a period of heavier use, likely motorway or long-distance driving, which tends to be mechanically gentler on components than stop-start urban use but does accelerate wear on consumables such as tyres and brake pads. The record is sparse with only two test events, leaving a gap in the service history between 2025 and 2026 that a buyer should verify through independent documentation. The 2025 advisory for slightly frayed nearside rear seat belt webbing is a minor concern that does not affect the vehicle's structural integrity but warrants a physical check to confirm the belt retracts and locks correctly under load. The advisory regarding manufacturer engine, sill, and body covers restricting inspection is standard for this generation of Tucson and does not indicate a defect, though it does mean a buyer should request the undertrays be removed to inspect the sills, subframe, and exhaust for corrosion or impact damage before purchase. A prospective buyer should focus the in-person inspection on the hybrid drivetrain's battery health and regenerative braking function, as no MOT data covers these systems directly. Check the front and rear brake discs and pads for uneven wear given the higher-than-average mileage, and examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration. The wiper defect was minor and resolved, but test the washer jets and screen condition for stone chips, as the Tucson's large windscreen is costly to replace. Overall, the MOT record is clean and the vehicle appears well-maintained, with no evidence of serious mechanical neglect.
