2020 Nissan E-NV200 MOT pass rate: 77.4% (6,536 tests)
Is the 2020 E-NV200 getting worse?
Pass rate of 2020-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 79.4% -11.5 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 77.0% -13.0 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 75.7% -13.3 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2020 E-NV200?
