Every Fiat Scudo model year

Pass rates fall as cars age, so the only fair comparison for a 2010 car is other cars of the same age. The full run for the Fiat Scudo:

What this means if you are buying a 2010 Scudo

The 2010 is one of the stronger years for this model, passing 3 points more often than the Fiat Scudo average. That is a point in its favour, though condition and service history still matter more than the model year.

What a 16-year-old car fails on

A 2010 car is 16 years old now, and age drives the failure mix more than the badge does. Across all cars tested, these are the categories that actually cause failures:

  • Lights and electrical: 10.36% of all cars tested
  • Suspension: 8.65% of all cars tested
  • Tyres: 6.23% of all cars tested
  • Brakes: 6.1% of all cars tested
  • Visibility: wipers, washers, glass: 4.65% of all cars tested
  • Body, chassis and structure: 3.18% of all cars tested

That is very high mileage. Clutches, dual-mass flywheels and head gaskets have usually been through at least one repair by this point, so ask for evidence rather than assume the car is original everywhere. On a 2010 Fiat Scudo the average at test was 155,297 miles, so treat anything far above that as a car that has worked harder than its peers, and anything far below as one worth checking for the faults that come from standing still.

The strongest year for this model is 2014 at 67.5%, and the weakest in our data is 2005 at 54.1%. That 13.4 point spread across the model's life is why comparing a 2010 car against a newer one tells you very little.
