The Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE MOT pass rate is 92.9%, +11.9 percentage points above the UK average. That is 494 DVSA MOT tests recorded between 2021 and 2022. This page lists the most common Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE MOT failures by category, names the best and worst model years, and finishes with a pre-MOT checklist you can run at home.
The Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE passed on its first attempt in 92.6%, and its overall record sits +11.9 percentage points above the national average for all cars. These figures come from every recorded DVSA MOT test for the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE in the 2023–2025 data: 494 tests across 2 model years (2021–2022). A test still carries exactly one pass or fail verdict.

Figures are computed from every recorded DVSA test for this model in the 2023–2025 data.
Every MOT failure a tester records belongs to one inspection section of the DVSA manual. For the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE, the Tyres section leads the record — the breakdown below shows where the recorded failures cluster, then the exact strings behind the three biggest sections.
| Inspection section | Share of failures |
|---|---|
| Tyres | 48% |
| Visibility | 24% |
| Brakes | 14% |
| Suspension | 6% |
| Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment | 6% |
| Identification of the vehicle | 2% |
Shares are over the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE's recorded defect strings, merged across its year pages.
Around 48% of the recorded Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE failures fall in the Tyres section of the MOT inspection manual. Testers recorded "Has ply or cords exposed" (2.2%), "Has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords" (2.2%), "Tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm" (0.4%) among the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE's tyres faults.
Around 24% of the recorded Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE failures fall in the Visibility section of the MOT inspection manual. Testers recorded "Wipers blade defective" (1.4%), "Windscreen damaged but not adversely affecting driver's view" (1.0%) among the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE's visibility faults.
Around 14% of the recorded Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE failures fall in the Brakes section of the MOT inspection manual. Testers recorded "Brake discs significantly and obviously worn" (0.4%), "Brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick" (0.4%), "Brake performance not tested unable to be tested" (0.2%) among the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE's brakes faults.
The descriptions below are the exact DVSA failure strings testers recorded most often for the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE, each with how many of the model's 494 tests it was noted on.
The strongest Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE model year on record is 2022 (95.5% across 178 tests), and the weakest is 2021 (91.5%). The gap between them is 4.0 points. Years with fewer than 50 recorded tests are excluded, so these are the years with enough MOT history to mean something.
| Year | Tests | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 E-Pace Rdynam HSE | 178 | 95.5% |
| 2021 E-Pace Rdynam HSE | 316 | 91.5% |
Newest model year first. Only years with at least 50 recorded tests are listed.
These checks follow this Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE.
the wipers and washers — “wipers blade defective”
Run the wipers with the screen wet: they should clear it in one sweep without smearing or juddering. Top the washer bottle up and check both jets hit the screen.
the windscreen — “windscreen damaged”
Check the driver’s side of the screen within the swept area for chips and cracks; anything larger than 10mm in the driver’s central view is a fail. Most chips can be resin-repaired for far less than a new screen.
the brakes — “brake discs significantly and obviously worn”
Look through the spokes of each wheel at the pad — less than 3mm of friction material, or a lip on the disc edge, is the usual failure. Check the handbrake holds on a slope with a few clicks, not at the top of its travel.
Derived from the DVSA failure strings testers recorded for the Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE. A check that finds nothing means the item is likely fine, not that the test is guaranteed.
92.9% of the 494 recorded Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE MOT tests ended in a pass, +11.9 percentage points above the national average. 92.6% of those passed on the first attempt.
2022 is the strongest Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE year on record at 95.5%, while 2021 is the weakest at 91.5%. The year-by-year table below lists every model year with at least 50 recorded tests.
The most recorded Jaguar E-Pace Rdynam HSE failures are "Has ply or cords exposed" and "Has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords" — together around 4% of tests, mostly in the Tyres section.
