Is the SsangYong Tivoli ULEZ Compliant?
Based on 6,736 MOT tests, around 96% of SsangYong Tivolis still on the road are likely to meet London's ULEZ standards, and about 0% are likely to be charged. For the remaining 4%, it depends on the exact Euro standard or month of registration.
The fuel mix matters: tested cars were 54% petrol, 46% diesel. Every petrol Tivoli in the data (2015 onwards) is likely to be compliant. Every diesel Tivoli in the data (2015 onwards) is likely to be compliant.

How ULEZ rules apply to the Tivoli
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 (54% of Tivolis tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.
- Diesel (46% of Tivolis tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.
Tivolis from 2015 sit on the boundary (4% of those tested): some were built to the required standard before it became compulsory. The Euro standard is sometimes on the V5C logbook, or SsangYong can confirm it. Our ULEZ calculator can help.

Buying a used SsangYong Tivoli for London: what the MOT data shows
The SsangYong Tivolis in this data were first registered between 2015 and 2020. 2016 was the most common year, with 2,078 tests (31% of the total), and half were registered in 2017 or later.
Every Tivoli in the data is from a year likely to comply, so age and condition matter more than ULEZ when choosing one. The newest (2020) passed first time 83% of the time at 19,396 miles on average, and the oldest (2015) passed 66% at 54,409 miles.
On a budget, the oldest diesel Tivolis likely to comply are from 2016. 1,233 of them were tested; 2016 cars passed first time 70% of the time and averaged 49,573 miles. Check the Euro standard on the V5C before you buy one from around then.
Whichever year you choose, check the Tivoli's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were lights and electrics: "inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps" (5.2% of tests); brakes: "less than 1.5 mm thick" (3.6%); visibility: "does not clear the windscreen effectively" (3.3%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 14.9% of tests.
Overall, 73% of Tivolis passed first time, slightly above the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 41,841 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
