2022 Renault Clio Iconic E Tech Auto

CarHunch analysed 142 real MOT records for the 2022 Renault Clio Iconic E Tech Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This Clio E-Tech is a genuinely reliable proposition: a 92.1% first-time pass rate significantly beats the UK average of 80%, and only 9.2% of vehicles have ever recorded a dangerous defect—well below the threshold for real buyer concern. The low failure rate of just 0.2 per vehicle on average confirms this is a car that doesn't rack up costly repair bills during its early years.

At 21,125 miles median, these cars show typical mileage for a two-year-old, so there's nothing hidden in the numbers. With an average of just 1.1 advisories per test, this electric Clio is proving robust in real-world use—though the median CarhunchScore of 50 suggests you should still budget for scheduled maintenance and get a pre-purchase inspection to catch any individual examples that aren't running perfectly.

What to check before buying a 2022 Renault Clio Iconic E Tech Auto

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.
