2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD

CarHunch analysed 30,128 real MOT records for the 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD has an 83.5% first-time pass rate, comfortably ahead of the UK average of 80%, and only 7.3% of vehicles have ever recorded a dangerous defect—well below concerning thresholds for a buyer. This is a reliably built car that passes its MOT tests more often than most.

At an average mileage of 35,714 miles for a two-year-old vehicle, these cars are running well within typical wear patterns, which partly explains the low 0.16 failures per vehicle. The 1.1 advisories per vehicle suggest minor wear items crop up occasionally, but nothing systematic—if you're considering one, a pre-purchase inspection focused on brake condition and tyre wear will cover the most likely issues.

What to check before buying a 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD

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.
