Kia ProCeed 2020: MOT failure rate for its age

15.9% of 2,032 MOT tests of the Kia ProCeed 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 104.4 (95% CI 93.0–115.8; 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.
