How KIA compares

KIA has an MOT pass rate of 84.0% on MOTindex, against 82.8% across every make checked here. With 3 KIA vehicles on record, this is a small sample rather than a national survey, so read it as a starting point rather than a verdict on the make.

Fuel types checked

Diesel 3 (100%)

Common KIA defects

From 25 KIA tests on MOTindex with a DVSA defect code to categorise.

Brakes 8 (32.0%)

Axles, wheels, tyres and suspension 8 (32.0%)

Registration plates and vehicle identification 1 (4.0%)

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment 1 (4.0%)

Nuisance (emissions and noise) 1 (4.0%)

A test can find problems in more than one category, so these figures do not sum to 100%. See the site-wide common failures breakdown for how this is worked out and how it compares across all makes.
