Best Year to Buy?

Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2020 model has the highest MOT pass rate at 91%, while the 2021 model has the lowest at 90%. The 2022 scores 92%, but cars from 2022 weren't due their first routine MOT until 2025, so its figure isn't compared here. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger, so compare years of a similar age.

About the 2022 Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi

The 2022 Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi is a city car. Our records list a 998cc hybrid engine, though engines vary between versions. 79 MOT tests were recorded on this model in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. Among all models from 2022, the average MOT pass rate is 94%, and this model falls short of that benchmark.

With an average of 22,323 miles recorded at its 2024 MOT tests, Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi owners cover more miles than the average driver. High-mileage examples should be checked carefully for wear on suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components.

2022 Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi Fuel Costs

The modest 998cc hybrid engine keeps fuel costs low, which is a real advantage for a city car. Our estimate uses around 50 mpg, the figure for a petrol engine of this size, which works out to roughly £1,175 per year with petrol at 174.57p per litre (GOV.UK weekly average, week of 19 October 2026; based on 7,400 miles per year). As a hybrid it should use less than that, and real-world fuel costs depend a lot on how much electric-only driving you do.

What does it cost to own a 2022 Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi?

Total estimated annual running cost is £1,630 (£136/month), broken down as £1,175 fuel, £200 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 92% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.

Buying a Used 2022 Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi

At 4 years old, the Hyundai i20 Premium MHEV T-Gdi offers good value with plenty of life remaining. Most manufacturer warranties will have expired, so a pre-purchase inspection is worth the cost. If you're flexible on year, the 2020 model has the highest pass rate at 91%. Note: with only 79 tests in our data, these figures should be treated as indicative rather than definitive.

Common Issues to Watch For

These are typical issues for cars of this age, fuel type and engine size, not faults recorded on this model's MOT tests. Use them as a checklist when you view one.

Hybrid Battery Health

Low risk

After 4 years, hybrid battery capacity may have reduced. A full replacement costs £2,000-£4,000, though reconditioning is cheaper at £500-£1,500.

Inverter and Power Electronics

Low risk

The inverter converts DC to AC for the electric motor. Failures are expensive (£1,500+) but relatively rare. Listen for unusual buzzing sounds.

Regenerative Braking

Low risk

Brake discs can corrode from reduced use (the electric motor handles most braking). Surface rust is normal but deep pitting needs attention.

Service History

Low risk

Always request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
