Is the Hyundai Getz ULEZ Compliant?

Based on 22,898 MOT tests, around 58% of Hyundai Getzes still on the road are likely to meet London's ULEZ standards, and about 4% are likely to be charged. For the remaining 37%, it depends on the exact Euro standard or month of registration.

The fuel mix matters: tested cars were 96% petrol. Every petrol Getz in the data (2002 onwards) is likely to be compliant.

How ULEZ rules apply to the Getz

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 (96% of Getzes tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.
  • Diesel (4% of Getzes tested): most cars in our data are from years unlikely to comply.

Buying a used Hyundai Getz for London: what the MOT data shows

The Hyundai Getzes in this data were first registered between 2002 and 2009. 2007 was the most common year, with 5,065 tests (22% of the total), and half were registered in 2006 or later.

Getzes from likely-compliant years passed their MOT first time 56% of the time, at an average of 77,070 miles. Older ones likely to be charged passed 56% of the time with 77,191 miles on average.

On a budget, the oldest petrol Getzes likely to comply are from 2006. 4,107 of them were tested; 2006 cars passed first time 55% of the time and averaged 78,117 miles. Check the Euro standard on the V5C before you buy one from around then.

Whichever year you choose, check the Getz's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were lights and electrics: "not working" (12.1% of tests); body and structure: "constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt" (7.2%); suspension: "ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt" (6.8%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 19.0% of tests.

Overall, 54% of Getzes passed first time, well below the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 76,313 miles on average, more than the 73,145-mile average.
