Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a low-mileage hybrid crossover. The MOT history is remarkably clean, showing no defects in the most recent three tests.
Given the low mileage relative to its age, your primary focus should be verifying that the hybrid battery system has been maintained according to Toyota's recommended schedules. While the MOT history is clean, it does not reflect the mechanical state of the hybrid drivetrain or the service history, so requesting proof of regular servicing is essential.
When negotiating, check for any evidence of tyre wear, as this is a common failure reason for this model type. Since the 2022 MOT showed a failure with no defects recorded, it is worth asking if that failure was related to a simple consumable item like a tyre or bulb, which would be consistent with the subsequent clean records.
As a 1.8L hybrid electric vehicle, this C-HR is designed for efficiency, particularly in urban environments. You can expect competitive fuel economy, which helps keep monthly motoring costs manageable.
Tax and insurance groups for this model vary depending on specific trim levels, but the hybrid nature often places it in a favourable bracket. Maintenance costs for Toyota hybrids are generally predictable, though you should budget for specialized inspections of the hybrid components. Total estimated annual running costs are likely to be moderate.
Inspect the tyres thoroughly; although no defects were recorded in the most recent tests, tyres are the top MOT failure reason for this model aggregate. Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues.
Because the vehicle has covered relatively low mileage (38,504 miles), pay close attention to the condition of rubber components and brake discs, which can sometimes suffer from surface corrosion if a vehicle is driven infrequently. Finally, ensure the hybrid system displays no warning lights on the dashboard during a test drive.
This 2018 Toyota C-HR hybrid, finished in silver, has covered 38,504 miles as of its last MOT in October 2025. This is significantly lower than the model average of 8,350 miles per year, which would suggest a figure closer to 60,000 miles for a vehicle of this age. The MOT record shows a consistent pattern of passing with no defects recorded since 2022.
The Toyota C-HR shows a high average MOT pass rate of 88.4% across nearly 96,000 analysed vehicles.
