Kia ProCeed 2010: MOT failure rate for its age
46.5% of 1,940 MOT tests of the Kia ProCeed first registered in 2010 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 98.3 (95% CI 91.9–104.7; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2010 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.
| Measure | Value | Unit | Compared with | Years | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Failed first time | 46.5 | % | all ages tested | 2019–2024 | 1940 |
| Index against this model at the same age (95% CI 91.9–104.7) | 98.3 | index | 100 = normal for this model at that age | 2019–2024 | 1940 |
| Rank among this model's 9 build years | 5 | of 9 | 1 = fails least for its age | 2019–2024 | 1940 |

How does the 2010 Kia ProCeed fail at each age?
Cars built in 2010 were tested at ages 9 to 14 between 2019 and 2024. Each row compares their first-time failure share with what this model normally shows at that age, after allowing for the overall failure level of each test year.
| Age | Tests | Failed, % | 95% interval | Normal for this model at that age, % | Index (100 = normal) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | 528 | 45.5 | 41.3–49.7 | 49.4 | 92 |
| 10 | 497 (rough estimate) | 46.7 | 42.3–51.1 | 47.1 | 99.2 |

How every figure is calculated: methodology. Age, test year and build year are tied together (age = test year − build year), so the test-year level is taken as observed, not estimated.
