Moderate sample. 377 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This Suzuki Vitara is significantly more reliable than the UK average, with a first-time MOT pass rate of 94.0% against the national 80%, and dangerous defects are rare at just 1.6% of vehicles. The hybrid powertrain appears well-engineered, showing no meaningful weakness in the data.

At nearly 26,500 miles on average for a 2022 model, these cars are running relatively fresh, which partly explains the strong results—but the low failure rate of 0.07 per vehicle suggests genuine build quality rather than simply low mileage masking problems. With just 0.5 advisories per vehicle, maintenance issues are minimal, so your main task as a buyer is to verify service history and check the hybrid battery warranty status.

The 2022 Suzuki Vitara Sz T B Jet MHEV Agrip passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (96.3% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
