2022 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FD22 VBZ

The most recent MOT, carried out on 6 January 2026, was passed with no recorded failures. The only advisory noted was that both front tyres were approaching the legal tread limit and exhibited edge‑wear, which is a routine wear issue rather than a safety defect. With two consecutive passes and only a tyre advisory, the vehicle’s maintenance record appears stable, showing no deterioration in core systems such as brakes, emissions, or structural integrity. At 56,369 miles the 2022 Toyota C‑HR has accumulated roughly 14 000 miles per year, which is above the average usage for a compact SUV of this age. The mileage suggests the car has been driven regularly rather than sitting for long periods, meaning consumables will have experienced normal wear cycles. However, the relatively high annual mileage accelerates the consumption of tyres, brake pads, and suspension components, and may also increase the likelihood of internal wear in the hybrid drivetrain and CVT if service intervals have not been strictly adhered to. Prospective buyers should give the front tyre condition immediate attention. Verify the tread depth with a calibrated gauge, ensuring it exceeds the 1.6 mm legal minimum, and inspect the sidewalls for cracking, bulging, or dry‑rot, which can develop even on relatively new tyres if they have been stored or used heavily. During a test drive, listen for any thumping or vibration that could indicate uneven wear, mis‑alignment, or a developing issue with the front suspension bushes or coil springs. If the tyres are close to replacement, budget for a set of four new tyres to maintain balanced handling and to avoid uneven wear on the rear axle. Beyond the tyres, a thorough visual and functional check is advisable given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Examine the brake discs for surface rust, scoring, or excessive wear, and confirm that the pads still have adequate thickness; any shudder or pulsation under braking would signal the need for resurfacing or replacement. Inspect the hybrid battery terminals and the 12 V auxiliary battery for corrosion and test the state of charge, as batteries can lose capacity after several years of service, especially if the car has spent time idle. Verify that the coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid have been changed in accordance with Toyota’s service schedule, as time‑based degradation can affect cooling efficiency and shift quality in the CVT. Finally, confirm the presence of a complete service book with stamps for oil changes, filter replacements, and any scheduled hybrid system checks, as a well‑documented service history will give confidence that the vehicle’s mechanical components have been maintained appropriately despite the higher mileage.
