This Volvo V90 is significantly more reliable than the UK average, with a 93.9% first-time MOT pass rate compared to the national 80%—a genuinely impressive result that reflects the car's solid build quality and the mild hybrid B4 diesel engine's proven durability. The 7.1% rate of dangerous defects is well below concern threshold, so safety issues are uncommon in this cohort.

At 31,705 miles median, these are relatively low-mileage examples for 2022 models, which partly explains the strong pass rate, but the real story is the minimal failures: just 0.12 per vehicle on average suggests owners rarely face unexpected repair bills at MOT time. The 0.9 advisories per car tells you minor wear items will crop up, but if you're buying one, check the service history closely to ensure the mild hybrid system and diesel particulate filter have been properly maintained—that's where future defects typically hide.
