How Proton compares

Proton has an MOT pass rate of 60.7%, against 69.4% across every make in the national record. That is 603,294 tests and 46,706 since 2012 with a defect code to categorise, so the figure rests on the whole national record for this make rather than a sample of it. See what Proton vehicles fail on.

Check a specific Proton

These are averages. For one vehicle's actual test history, enter its registration.

Figures cover every Proton 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.
