How Cupra models compare on the MOT
The spread across Cupra models is wide — 94.8% for the Born V2 at the top and 91.2% for the Formentor V1 at the bottom, a 3.6-point gap across 2,046 and 6,743 recorded tests respectively. Most Cupra models sit much closer to the middle (around 91.6%, on 10,726 tests for the Formentor V2). The best and worst are both real DVSA results, not opinions: the pass rate is the share of every completed MOT test for that model that ended in a pass.
Every figure above is drawn from the DVSA's class-4 MOT records for the 2020–2023 data years: 31,195 tests across 17 Cupra models. A pass rate counts every completed test — first attempt and retests — so the figures above include a van or motorhome being tested twice in one year. The first-time pass figures on each model page are lower as a result. See the methodology page for exactly how each rate is calculated and how the DVSA source data is filtered.

Reading the numbers
A pass rate covers every completed test recorded for that model and year, including retests. First-attempt figures are lower. See how we calculate.
