Renault MOT pass rates
Renault MOT pass rates, ranked across 76 models and 3,719,935 DVSA MOT tests between 2000 and 2025, from the Arkana (91.9%) to the Espace (68.5%). The tables below compare every model with enough tests to rank, list the most-tested models, and link to each model's own pass-rate and fault pages.
How Renault models compare on the MOT
The spread across Renault models is wide — 91.9% for the Arkana at the top and 68.5% for the Espace at the bottom, a 23.4-point gap across 9,958 and 5,348 recorded tests respectively. Most Renault models sit much closer to the middle (around 73.4%, on 420,397 tests for the Trafic). 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 2000–2025 data years: 3,719,935 tests across 76 Renault 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.
