TOYOTA YARIS DESIGN HEV CVT2021 · 1.5L HYBRID ELECTRIC

The vehicle presents a stable and consistently clean roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT, conducted on 14 May 2026 at 32,217 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This follows two further consecutive passes on 21 May 2025 at 26,442 miles and 27 May 2024 at 20,589 miles, both also entirely defect-free. The maintenance trend is unambiguously stable, with no recurring faults, no advisories, and no failures across the entire three-test history available. The mileage accumulation is steady and unremarkable. Between the May 2024 and May 2025 tests, the car covered 5,853 miles over twelve months. Between May 2025 and May 2026, it added 5,775 miles over a near-identical period. This equates to roughly 6,443 miles per year across the vehicle's five-year life, which sits squarely within typical annual usage for a petrol-electric hybrid supermino. There are no suspicious gaps in the MOT record, no sudden spikes in accumulation, and no evidence of long-term standing or clocking anomalies. With no mechanical or structural defects flagged across three consecutive annual tests, the MOT record itself raises no red flags regarding suspension, brakes, steering, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. The hybrid powertrain, including the CVT gearbox and high-voltage battery system, has not prompted any tester concerns. The absence of even minor advisories across 11,628 miles of recorded use suggests attentive ownership and routine servicing. A buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas the MOT does not continuously monitor. Check the condition of the tyres for uneven wear that could indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues not yet severe enough to fail a test. Inspect the underside for any early corrosion on subframes, suspension mounting points, or exhaust components, particularly if the vehicle has spent time in coastal or salted-road environments. Test the regenerative braking function and the transition between electric and petrol modes under real-world driving conditions, as hybrid system faults can develop between annual tests without triggering a failure. Verify the service history independently, since the clean MOT record, while encouraging, does not confirm that oil changes, brake fluid replacement, or hybrid coolant maintenance have been performed on schedule.
