2021 Fiat 500e Passion

CarHunch analysed 288 real MOT records for the 2021 Fiat 500e Passion. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2021 FIAT 500E PASSION passes its MOT on first attempt at 85.5%, which is a solid 5.5 percentage points ahead of the UK average—a genuine mark of reliability at this age. The dangerous defect rate of 5.9% is reassuringly low, suggesting no systemic safety concerns with the model.

These cars are running at just 16,000 miles median, which is light use for a three-year-old vehicle and explains why failures are minimal (0.35 per car on average). When shopping for one, focus your inspection on the advisory items (averaging 1.3 per car), as these typically signal wear to monitor rather than imminent failure—get a pre-purchase inspection that specifically checks suspension and brake components, which dominate EV advisory patterns.

What to check before buying a 2021 Fiat 500e Passion

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
