Hybrid against the other Hyundai Ioniq versions
| Fuel | Pass rate | Tests |
|---|---|---|
| Hybrid | 89.9% | 35,179 |
| Electric | 92.4% | 7,985 |
| All Hyundai Ioniq | 90.4% | 43,203 |
Why the fuel type changes the number
Hybrids sidestep most emissions failures and tend to do lighter urban miles, though the extra weight tells on tyres and brakes.
On the Hyundai Ioniq specifically, electric is the strongest at 92.4%, and this hybrid version sits 0.5 points below the 90.4% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
There is little to choose between fuel types on this model, so decide on running costs and mileage rather than MOT record. Check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.
Mileage is part of the answer
The average hybrid Hyundai Ioniq had covered 62,718 miles at test, against 37,316 for the electric. That is around average, so condition and service history will tell you more than the odometer does.
Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Hyundai Ioniq page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
