2023 Renault Arkana E Tech Engineered HEV A

CarHunch is tracking 3,144 2023 Renault Arkana E Tech Engineered HEV A vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 2023 Renault Arkana hybrid is failing its MOT at an alarming rate: only 7.5% pass first time, compared to the UK average of 80%. The dangerous defect rate is mercifully low at 0.4%, but that catastrophic pass rate suggests systematic problems—either with the test itself, the vehicle's design, or how owners are maintaining these hybrids.

At an average mileage of 23,534 miles, these cars are barely run-in, yet they're already racking up failures with 0.01 failures per vehicle on average. If you're considering this model, treat that 7.5% pass rate as a red flag: speak directly to owners about what's actually going wrong, and factor in the cost and inconvenience of repeated MOT visits before committing.

What to check before buying a 2023 Renault Arkana E Tech Engineered HEV 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.
