What this means if you are buying a 2022 Superb

The 2022 is one of the stronger years for this model, passing 11.1 points more often than the Skoda Superb average.

What a 4-year-old car fails on

A 2022 car is 4 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 around average, so condition and service history will tell you more than the odometer does. On a 2022 Skoda Superb the average at test was 64,891 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 2023 at 99%, and the weakest in our data is 2009 at 67.2%. That 31.8 point spread across the model's life is why comparing a 2022 car against a newer one tells you very little.
