Where they fail
Share of tests with at least one failure in each area, against cars of the same age.
A test can fail in more than one area. Failures fixed during the test are included.
Most common failures
The 10 defects that failed Mercedes Evito tests most often, as a share of all tests.
| Failure | Tests | Cars the same age | vs same age | Marked dangerous |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Joints: constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt Body and structure | 5.4% | 0.1% | 54× | 0.0% |

| Rbt (sp): efficiency below requirements Brakes | 2.4% | 0.1% | 24× | 0.0% |
| Condition: has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords Tyres | 1.5% | 1.9% | 0.8× | 0.0% |
| Tread depth: tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm Tyres Dangerous | 1.2% | 1.2% | 1.0× | 100.0% |
| Condition: has ply or cords exposed Tyres Dangerous | 1.0% | 1.0% | 1.0× | 100.0% |
