Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2006 model has the highest pass rate at 82% from 191 tests. The 2007 model has the lowest at 70%. The 12 point gap means pass rates vary somewhat between years, but no year is dramatically different. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger.

Mileage Across Years
