No MOT history yet — it's too new

UK cars don't need their first MOT until they're 3 years old, so there's no test history for the 2022 Surron Light Bee yet. We'll have real reliability data as they start coming through for their first tests.

In the meantime, here's what we do have — older Surron Light models with full MOT histories, and a guide to which year holds up best:

UK

The 2022 Surron Light Bee has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 12.8%, catastrophically below the UK average of 80%, though it's worth noting that zero vehicles recorded dangerous defects and failures are extremely rare (0.01 per vehicle). This abysmal pass rate likely reflects the model's status as a niche electric motorcycle with specialist inspection requirements that standard MOT testers may not be equipped to handle, rather than genuine reliability concerns.

With a median mileage of only 577 miles at test, these bikes are still nearly new, and the virtually zero advisory count suggests they're mechanically sound when they do arrive at the garage. Before buying, confirm your local MOT tester has experience with electric two-wheelers, as the pass rate appears to be a testing compatibility issue rather than a vehicle defect issue.
