Moderate sample. 443 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This 2022 Discovery PHEV passes its MOT on the first attempt 87.7% of the time, meaningfully ahead of the UK average of 80%, which suggests solid build quality for a relatively new premium SUV. The dangerous defect rate sits at just 5%, well below concern levels, so safety-critical failures are genuinely rare in this cohort.

When you do encounter an issue, it's typically minor, but if you're shopping for one, check the specific service history to confirm the plug-in hybrid battery and charging system have been properly maintained.

The 2022 Land Rover Discovery Spt R Dyn Hse PHEV A passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (91.2% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
