Our Verdict
Highly recommended for buyers seeking a low-mileage hybrid with a pristine inspection record. This vehicle represents a well-used example of the early-generation C-HR platform.
When inspecting this specific C-HR, the primary focus should be verifying the mileage consistency, as the recorded sub-30,000 mile figure is well below the national average. Ensure the hybrid battery has been maintained according to Toyota's requirements, as this is critical for maintaining the hybrid warranty.
Given that the average MOT failure reason for this model involves tyres, check the remaining tread and age on the current set, as low-mileage cars sometimes suffer from rubber hardening before wear. Look for a full service history to confirm that oil changes have been performed despite the low annual mileage.
The 1.8L hybrid engine is designed for high fuel economy, typically delivering impressive figures in city-centre driving environments. Tax bands for this model are generally low due to its hybrid status, though insurance groups vary based on the driver's profile.
Maintenance costs are typically lower than petrol counterparts because the regenerative braking reduces wear on brake pads. Expect an annual running cost of approximately £900-£1,200, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing/maintenance.
The MOT record for this vehicle shows no failures, which indicates a lack of major mechanical or safety-related issues during the testing periods. However, you should still inspect the bodywork for stone chips or scuffs which are common on the C-HR's angular panels.
Pay close attention to the hybrid system operation; any warning lights on the dashboard upon startup. Since the car has covered relatively low miles, check the condition of the tyres for cracks or flat spots, and these can occur if the vehicle has sat for extended periods.
This 2019 Toyota C-HR shows an exceptionally low mileage of just 29,458 miles, which is significantly lower than the market average for its age. Its MOT history is flawless, with five consecutive passes and no recorded defects or advisories since its first test in 2022. The 1798cc hybrid powertrain suggests a focus on efficiency for urban and short-distance driving.
Toyota C-HR models are generally regarded for high reliability, with an 88.4% average MOT pass rate across thousands of samples.
