2022 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · FG22 XLE

The 2022 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT presents a stable and highly favorable maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 15 August 2025 at 17,736 miles. With zero defects recorded at that most recent test, the vehicle demonstrates consistent mechanical integrity and sound upkeep. The absence of any advisories or failures across both recorded MOTs indicates a well-maintained hybrid drivetrain and chassis, reflecting an owner who kept the car in good working order. The mileage accumulation aligns with exceptionally light usage. Between the test on 19 March 2025 at 15,013 miles and the subsequent test on 15 August 2025 at 17,736 miles, the vehicle covered just 2,723 miles over five months. Annualized, this equates to roughly 4,434 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average. Such low mileage suggests predominantly short, urban trips or extended periods of inactivity, a pattern common with city-dwelling owners or secondary household vehicles. Although the MOT record remains entirely free of defects, the low-mileage profile warrants a focused physical inspection. Buyers should closely examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion, a common issue when vehicles stand idle or undertake only short journeys where the brakes do not reach optimal operating temperatures. Tyre condition deserves equal scrutiny; verify the date codes, as rubber can perish and sidewall cracking can occur well before the tread wears down on a car driven so sparingly. Inspect the exhaust system and suspension bushes for any signs of deterioration from standing, and assess the 12-volt auxiliary battery health, as hybrid vehicles can suffer from auxiliary battery drain during prolonged inactivity.
