Where each one leads
Hyundai i800
Ahead on none of the like-for-like measures.
Mercedes-Benz Viano
- Against cars of the same age, the Mercedes-Benz Viano comes out better at its first MOT test (passes 4% more often than average) than the Hyundai i800 (passes 17% less often than average).
- New Mercedes-Benz Viano cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 216 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 239 for the Hyundai i800 in 2020.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
