Nissan Leaf E + 3.zero (2019)
2019 Nissan Leaf E + 3.zero
CarHunch analysed 138 real MOT records for the 2019 Nissan Leaf E + 3.zero. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2019 Nissan Leaf E+ 3.Zero is a genuinely reliable proposition, with a 92% first-time pass rate that sits 12 percentage points above the UK average—and dangerous defects affecting only 13% of the cohort, well below the concern threshold. This is an electric car doing what it should: minimal mechanical failure risk compared to combustion engines.
These 138 vehicles average just 34,345 miles at test time, suggesting they're being driven moderately and cared for, though advisories average 4 per vehicle—typical wear items like wiper blades and minor trim issues rather than structural problems. If you're buying one, a pre-purchase inspection is still wise to check battery health and charging port condition, but the MOT data suggests mechanical reliability won't be your headache.
What to check before buying a 2019 Nissan Leaf E + 3.zero
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.
