Hyundai ix20 2020: MOT failure rate for its age

9.4% of 245 MOT tests of the Hyundai ix20 first registered in 2020 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 86.6 (95% CI 51.2–121.9; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2020 build year is no different from other years of the same model at the same age. This is a rough estimate from a smaller sample.
