Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Hyundai Bayon Premium T Gdi MHEV Auto?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

The 2022 Hyundai Bayon Premium T-GDI MHEV Auto is a solid performer, with an 88.3% first-time pass rate that comfortably beats the UK average of 80%, and only 2.5% of vehicles ever developing a dangerous defect—well below concern levels. This hybrid model shows strong early reliability with minimal failure issues at just 0.18 failures per vehicle on average.

At 18,350 miles median age, these cars are still relatively young and low-mileage, so the 0.6 advisories per vehicle mostly reflect minor wear rather than serious problems. If you're considering one, check the service history carefully and have any advisory items addressed before purchase, as the data suggests this generation is mechanically sound but you'll want confidence in maintenance records from day one.
