2022 Hyundai Tucson Premium T Gdi MHEV S A

CarHunch analysed 419 real MOT records for the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Premium T Gdi MHEV S A. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2022 Tucson is a strong performer: its 91.8% first-time pass rate significantly beats the UK average of 80%, and only 1.9% of vehicles have ever recorded a dangerous defect, well below the concern threshold. The hybrid powertrain shows no weak spots—all 418 vehicles tested are the same Hybrid Electric variant, and they're passing reliably across the board.

At around 24,600 miles median (typical for a two-year-old), these Tucsons are racking up modest annual mileage, which helps explain the low failure rate of just 0.14 per vehicle. When you do take one in for MOT, expect minimal issues—grab the service history and check the hybrid battery's warranty status before purchase, since that's the one component you'll want peace of mind on.

What to check before buying a 2022 Hyundai Tucson Premium T Gdi MHEV 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.
