2022 Toyota Yaris Excel HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · CV22 WCD

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 April 2026 at 19,148 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior successful test on 23 April 2025 at 15,035 miles also showed a clean sheet. The only blemish is a failed test on 17 April 2025 at the same 15,035 miles, where the DVSA record lists no defects; this points to an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault with the vehicle itself, and the owner corrected it within six days. The mileage pattern reflects light use for a four-year-old car. From the April 2025 test at 15,035 miles to April 2026 at 19,148 miles, the vehicle covered just 4,113 miles in twelve months, consistent with the overall average of roughly 4,787 miles per year. The record shows no rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps; the sparse three-entry history spans only the 2025 and 2026 tests, which is expected for a low-mileage late-model hybrid still inside its early life. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean advisories. Low annual mileage and the April 2025 failure with no listed defect warrant a check of the DVSA failure reason through the full certificate, as the record alone does not expose which item triggered rejection. Examine brake discs and calipers for binding after standing periods, and inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for degradation from intermittent use. Verify the hybrid drivetrain and 12-volt battery health, since short trips at this mileage can leave the combustion engine and charging system under-exercised. Confirm underside corrosion and exhaust emissions against Toyota's structural integrity points before purchase.
