Where an electric Aiways U5 deserves extra scrutiny

  • Thermal management. We look for coolant leaks and stored thermal faults that quietly shorten battery life.
  • DC fast-charge behaviour. Charging performance and any throttling or errors are checked, because a battery that won't fast-charge cleanly is a red flag.
  • Battery state of health. We read the high-voltage battery data to estimate degradation against its original capacity — the single biggest factor in an EV's value.
  • Software and recalls. Stored fault codes and outstanding software or recall items are checked, as EVs depend heavily on their software.
  • Charging port and onboard charger. The port, cables and AC charging are tested for reliable, fault-free operation.

What we check on every car

The Aiways U5 gets the full sweep — body, mechanicals, electronics and a road test:

Bodywork & paint

Panel-by-panel paint-thickness gauge readings to reveal filler, resprays and past accident repairs.

Chassis & structure

Underbody, sills and structural members checked for corrosion, welding and crash damage.

Engine & drivetrain

Cold-start behaviour, fluid condition, leaks, belts and audible faults assessed.

Diagnostics (OBD)

Full electronic fault-code read-out from the on-board systems, live and stored codes.

Electric & hybrid systems

Battery state-of-health indicators, charging behaviour and high-voltage warnings for EVs and hybrids.

Suspension, steering, brakes

Wear, play, leaks, disc and pad condition and tyre health inspected.

Interior & electronics

Equipment, infotainment, climate and electrical functions tested for correct operation.

Road test

A short functional drive to judge gearbox, brakes, steering and running refinement.

Documentation check

VIN match, service history plausibility and odometer cross-check against condition.

Two packages, one inspection

The 35,999 Ft Standard package has you present with a printed report on the spot; the 39,999 Ft Digital is for when you cannot attend, with the full report, photos and video sent by email. The checks on your Aiways U5 are identical — only your presence and the delivery differ. Compare packages.

Aiways U5: frequently asked questions

How much does a pre-purchase inspection of the Aiways U5 cost?

An on-site inspection of the Aiways U5 starts at 35,999 Ft for the Standard package, where you attend in person and we go through the findings with you at the car. The Digital Inspection Package costs 39,999 Ft and is carried out without you there, with the results sent as photographs, video and a written report by email. The inspection itself is identical in both, the call-out fee within Budapest is included, and there are no hidden extras.

What should I have checked before buying a used Aiways U5?

A used Aiways U5 is a sound choice with its eyes open, and that means knowing its weak points. When we inspect one, the points that most often need attention are thermal management, DC fast-charge behaviour and battery state of health. These are the reasons an independent inspection pays off on the Aiways U5, whether you came looking for vehicle inspection or onsite vehicle inspection before buying.

Can you check the Aiways U5's service history and mileage?

Yes. We cross-check the VIN across the car and its documents, review the service records for plausibility, and compare the Aiways U5's indicated mileage against its physical wear. A reading that does not match the condition, or a history with unexplained gaps, is flagged so you are protected against an altered odometer or a misrepresented car.

Do you read the fault codes on the Aiways U5?

Yes — a full on-board diagnostic scan is part of every inspection. On the Aiways U5 we capture both live and stored fault codes, including ones a seller may have cleared shortly before your viewing, and we read live data to catch systems that are struggling before any warning light appears. On electric and hybrid versions this also opens up the battery and charging data.

Can you tell whether the Aiways U5 has been in an accident?

We measure paint thickness across every panel and examine the structural areas, seams and fasteners for filler, resprays and signs of straightening or fresh welding. Together these reveal the great majority of accident repairs that a casual viewing would never expose on a Aiways U5. Where a reading raises a question, we investigate further before drawing any conclusion.

What if the Aiways U5 turns out to be a poor purchase?

Then the inspection has done its job. A clear report on a problem Aiways U5 saves you from a costly mistake and frees you to keep looking with confidence. Walking away from the wrong car is just as valuable as buying the right one, and our report makes sure you know exactly why.

People search for vehicle inspection — is that what you do for the Aiways U5?

Yes. Vehicle inspection is simply another way of describing what we do for the Aiways U5: an independent, on-site inspection before you buy. Our inspector comes to the car, works through the full checklist and the diagnostics, and explains every finding in English. Plenty of buyers also look for onsite auto mechanic, and that is the very same service.

Do you offer onsite vehicle inspection before buying when buying the Aiways U5?

We do. For the Aiways U5, onsite vehicle inspection before buying means a complete, on-the-spot pre-purchase inspection carried out wherever the car is parked in Budapest, with the result reported in English. It is the same thorough check buyers have in mind when they search for pre purchase car inspection on site Budapest — independent, documented and yours to act on.
