2022 Hyundai Ioniq SE Connect HEV S A

CarHunch analysed 560 real MOT records for the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq SE Connect HEV S A. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2022 Ioniq hybrid is slightly more reliable than the UK average, with an 81.7% first-time pass rate compared to the national 80%, and dangerous defects are rare at 4.3%—well below concern territory. The petrol-hybrid powertrain appears solid on its initial test showings.

At under 38,000 miles on average for a two-year-old model, these cars are running light, which explains why failures average just 0.2 per vehicle and advisories only 0.7—typical wear items simply haven't accumulated yet. If you're buying one used, request the full MOT history and factor in that components like brakes and suspension will need attention as mileage climbs beyond 60,000 miles.

What to check before buying a 2022 Hyundai Ioniq SE Connect HEV S A

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.
