Kia ProCeed 2014: MOT failure rate for its age
23.6% of 704 MOT tests of the Kia ProCeed first registered in 2014 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 66.0 (95% CI 56.0–76.0; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2014 Kia ProCeed fails less often than other build 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 | 23.6 | % | all ages tested | 2019–2024 | 704 |
| Index against this model at the same age (95% CI 56.0–76.0) | 66.0 | index | 100 = normal for this model at that age | 2019–2024 | 704 |

How does the 2014 Kia ProCeed fail at each age?
Cars built in 2014 were tested at ages 5 to 10 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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 247 (rough estimate) | 13.8 | 10–18.6 | 19.2 | 71.6 |

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.
