Is the Chrysler Ypsilon ULEZ Compliant?
Based on 5,054 MOT tests, around 97% of Chrysler Ypsilons still on the road are likely to meet London's ULEZ standards, and about 3% are likely to be charged.
The fuel mix matters: tested cars were 97% petrol. Every petrol Ypsilon in the data (2011 onwards) is likely to be compliant.

How ULEZ rules apply to the Ypsilon
Cars that miss the standard pay £12.50 for each day they're driven in the zone. Petrol and petrol-hybrid cars need Euro 4 (most from 2006), while diesels need Euro 6 (most from September 2015).
- Petrol (97% of Ypsilons tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.
- Diesel (3% of Ypsilons tested): most cars in our data are from years unlikely to comply.
Ypsilons from 2014 and 2015 sit on the boundary (0% of those tested): some were built to the required standard before it became compulsory. The Euro standard is sometimes on the V5C logbook, or Chrysler can confirm it. Our ULEZ calculator can help.

Buying a used Chrysler Ypsilon for London: what the MOT data shows
The Chrysler Ypsilons in this data were first registered between 2011 and 2015. 2013 was the most common year, with 1,697 tests (34% of the total), and half were registered in 2013 or later.
Ypsilons from likely-compliant years passed their MOT first time 63% of the time, at an average of 59,051 miles. Older ones likely to be charged passed 63% of the time with 65,116 miles on average.
Whichever year you choose, check the Ypsilon's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were suspension: "fractured or broken" (8.3% of tests) and "has an excessively worn bush" (5.9%); lights and electrics: "not working" (4.2%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 19.1% of tests.
Overall, 63% of Ypsilons passed first time, well below the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 59,246 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
