How the FORD S-MAX compares
The FORD S-MAX has an MOT pass rate of 74.8%, against 66.0% across all FORD vehicles, and 69.4% across every make in the national record. That is 1,400,465 tests for this model and 144,113,396 for the make, so the comparison rests on the whole national record rather than a sample of it. See what FORD S-MAX models fail on.

A test can find problems in more than one category, so these figures do not sum to 100%. Common FORD S-MAX MOT failures has the full breakdown and how it is worked out.

Figures cover every FORD S-MAX in the national MOT record, which includes vehicles since scrapped or exported, so "on record" is not a count of cars on the road. Pass rate counts every recorded MOT test, retests included. Some MOT records describe the same model with extra trim or engine detail attached; where that detail is a recognised trim or drivetrain code, the vehicle is counted under the base model shown here rather than treated as a separate one.
