Compare the manufacturer warranty (comprehensive / powertrain / battery) by make and category. A vehicle still under the full base warranty requires no inspection. Outside the base warranty, an inspection performed by you is required at vehicle purchase.
Indicative Canadian-market data. The "comprehensive" coverage determines the inspection requirement.

Inspection rule
If the vehicle is no longer under the manufacturer's full base warranty (based on the year and mileage above), a consumer inspection is mandatory and must be provided at the time of used-vehicle purchase. Vehicles 2018 and newer remain eligible for the extended warranty, unlimited mileage.
