2016 TOYOTA PRIUS1.8L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The 2016 Toyota Prius presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 May 2025 at 50,212 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes from 2023 to 2024 also show clean sheets. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year record, so the upkeep pattern reads as consistent and uneventful rather than deteriorating. Mileage sits low for a ten-year-old vehicle. The odometer moved from 30,381 miles at the June 2022 test to 38,826 by July 2023, then 45,405 by July 2024, and 50,212 by May 2025. That averages roughly 5,000 miles per year with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The clean history across those dates suggests the previous keeper used the car lightly and kept on top of basic servicing, though low use can let moisture build in brake calipers or suspension bushes if the car stood for weeks at a time. A buyer should still book a physical inspection despite the spotless MOT run. The July 2024 record shows a fail on 2 July at 45,405 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on 3 July at the same mileage. That points to an administrative or presentational issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical defect, but it warrants a check of the V5C and any gap in documentation. Focus the viewing on underbody corrosion, brake disc condition, and front suspension arm bushes, as these areas suffer silently on low-mileage hybrids left standing. The Prius hybrid drivetrain itself shows no flagged faults, yet a health check of the HV battery cooling fan and inverter coolant remains sensible given the car's age.
