Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a
When inspecting this specific white C-HR, focus on the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Although it passed in 2024 and 2025, the 2024 failure indicated the system was malfunctioning, so ensure no warning lights are present on the dashboard during your test drive.
Request evidence of the tyre replacement following the 2024 MOT failure, as both front tyres were noted as being worn close to the legal limit. You should also confirm that the offside rear brake pads, which failed in 2024, were replaced and that the braking performance feels consistent.
As a 1.8L Hybrid Electric vehicle, this C-HR is designed for efficiency, typically sitting in a moderate insurance group and benefiting from lower emissions. Fuel economy will be highly dependent on driving style and urban versus motorway split.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, though you should budget for periodic tyre replacements given the 18-inch wheel size noted in the MOT history. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, are approximately £1,200-£1,500.
Pay close attention to the tyres. The 2024 MOT record specifically highlighted issues with both front tyres being worn on the edges, which can sometimes indicate alignment issues. Check the tread depth and look for even wear across all four tyres.
Check the braking system and the TPMS sensor functionality. The 2024 failure included an offside rear brake pad below the 1.5mm limit and a TPMS malfunction. Ensure the dashboard is free of any sensor errors and that the brakes do not squeal or pull to one side.
This 2017 Toyota C-HR Hybrid features a 1.8L engine and has covered 59,940 miles as of its July 2026 MOT. While the 2024 MOT history shows failures related to tyres, brake pads, and the tyre pressure monitoring system, the vehicle has passed its two most recent tests with no defects recorded. The mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 8,340 miles per year, but remains consistent with typical hybrid usage.
The Toyota C-HR shows a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 88.4% across nearly 96,000 analysed vehicles, with tyres being a common failure reason across the model range.
