Mitsubishi I-Miev MOT reliability

There were not enough MOT tests of Mitsubishi I-Mievs in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.

• Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
• Electric cars produce no exhaust CO2; range and miles per kWh are VCA’s official figures.
• Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was listed. Matched from VCA’s model names “i-MiEV”, “i”. How we use VCA’s figures.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Mitsubishi I-Miev. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
