2023 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric · J44 YCX

The 2023 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT presents a clean bill of health based on the sole MOT entry available. The test conducted on 14 January 2026 at 18,006 miles returned a pass with zero defects, advisories, or fails recorded. With only one test on file, there is no historical trend to analyse for deterioration or recurring faults. The maintenance picture is stable but extremely limited in scope, offering a snapshot rather than a longitudinal view of how the vehicle has been cared for over its first three years. At roughly three years old with 18,006 miles, the annual average sits at approximately 6,000 miles per year, which falls squarely within typical usage for a vehicle of this age. There are no mileage gaps or anomalies to flag. The single test date of January 2026 is reasonably recent relative to today's date of June 2026, meaning the pass is less than six months old and still representative of the vehicle's current condition. However, the absence of any prior MOT records is notable. A 2023 vehicle would have needed its first MOT by January 2026, so this appears to be the inaugural test, which explains the sparse history. Buyers should approach the clean MOT result with measured confidence. A single pass with no advisories is encouraging, but it does not substitute for a thorough physical inspection. The hybrid drivetrain, CVT gearbox, and regenerative braking system deserve particular attention during a test drive. Listen for any hesitation or judder during the transition between electric and combustion power, and check that the CVT operates smoothly without slipping or unusual noise under load. The brake system should be inspected for uneven pad wear, as hybrid vehicles often show atypical wear patterns due to regenerative braking reducing mechanical brake use. A physical underbody inspection is also advisable. The subframe, suspension mounting points, and exhaust system should be checked for corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. The coil springs, suspension bushes, and shock absorbers should be examined for leaks or deterioration. Tyre condition and tread depth should be verified independently, as uneven wear could hint at alignment or suspension issues not yet severe enough to trigger a flag. Given the vehicle's low mileage, interior wear should be minimal, but test all electrical systems, including infotainment, climate control, and driver assistance features, to confirm full functionality.
