SsangYong Korando 2019: MOT failure rate for its age

18.2% of 2,081 MOT tests of the SsangYong Korando first registered in 2019 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 91.0 (95% CI 81.8–100.1; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2019 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.
