188 real MOT outcomes analysed • 81.7% first-time pass rate

2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo S

CarHunch analysed 188 real MOT records for the 2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo S. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo S posts an 81.7% first-time pass rate, marginally above the UK average of 80%, which suggests broadly reliable early-life performance with no systemic issues emerging yet. The dangerous defect rate of 6.9% is comfortably low, so structural or safety problems are not a significant buyer concern at this stage.

These cars are running around 20,500 miles on the odometer at test time, which is perfectly normal for their age, and the minimal failure load—just 0.1 failures per vehicle on average—reflects the typical teething-free experience of a modern electric flagship. Before committing to purchase, have an independent Porsche specialist inspect the battery management system and cooling circuits, as these systems are costly if problems develop outside warranty.

What to check before buying a 2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo S

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.
