How Kingussie compares

Kingussie passes 59.1% of car tests, which is 9 points above the 50.1% national average. The typical wait between booking and testing is 17.1 weeks, 5 weeks longer than the national average of 12.1 weeks. It conducted 93 car tests in April 2025 to March 2026. In the most recent month DVSA has published, March 2026, the rate was 46.7% — a single month, so expect it to bounce around the annual figure.

Kingussie conducts fewer than 500 tests a year, so its pass rate moves sharply on a small number of results. It is excluded from the site's rankings for that reason, though the figures above are exactly as DVSA published them.
