Our Verdict
A cautious recommendation for those seek
Since there is no MOT history available for MK26ABO, your primary focus must be on the manufacturer's service history and warranty status. Ensure that the vehicle has been serviced according to Toyota's requirements to maintain any existing hybrid battery warranties.
Request a full digital service record and verify the remaining balance of the manufacturer warranty. Because the car is so new, you should also check for any outstanding manufacturer recalls that may not yet be reflected in a service book.
As a 1.8L hybrid (1798cc), this C-HR is designed for efficiency, likely sitting in a competitive insurance group and benefiting from lower CO2 emissions. Fuel economy should be high, particularly in urban environments, which helps offset the initial purchase price.
Annual running costs will be influenced by the driver's annual mileage and insurance profile. Expect typical maintenance costs for a modern Toyota to be relatively predictable, though early years are often covered by service plans or manufacturer intervals.
With no MOT data to reference, you cannot check for historical issues like brake wear, tyre condition, or suspension components. Instead, conduct a thorough visual inspection of the exterior red paintwork for any signs of damage and check the interior condition of the Excel trim.
Crucially, inspect the hybrid system's interface and ensure all electronic components are functioning as expected. Since the car is nearly new, look for any signs of uneven tyre wear which could indicate alignment issues from its time on the road.
This Toyota C-HR Excel HEV CVT is a very recent registration from March 2026, meaning it is currently less than four years old. Because it has not yet reached its first MOT anniversary, there is no recorded history of failures or advisories to assess. The vehicle represents a modern Euro 6 hybrid specification in a red finish, offering the latest emissions standards.
No aggregate MOT data is currently available for this specific 2026 Toyota C-HR variant to establish a reliability trend.
