2024 Suzuki Swace Motion HEV CVT

CarHunch analysed 463 real MOT records for the 2024 Suzuki Swace Motion HEV CVT. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2024 Suzuki Swace is failing its MOT at an alarming rate: only 17.9% pass first time, compared to the UK average of 80%, which is a red flag for any potential buyer. The dangerous defect rate is negligible at 0.2%, so safety-critical failures aren't the issue—rather, the vehicle appears to have systemic problems with emissions or other test criteria that shouldn't be this widespread on a brand-new model.

With a median mileage of just 14,935 miles, these cars are extremely young and should be trouble-free; the fact that they're racking up nearly one advisory per vehicle on average suggests either a design flaw specific to this variant or a testing/setup issue at delivery. Before committing to one of these, insist on a pre-purchase inspection by an independent garage familiar with the Swace's hybrid system, and ask the dealer directly what the most common MOT failure reasons are for their stock.

What to check before buying a 2024 Suzuki Swace Motion HEV CVT

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.
