2022 Toyota Yaris Cross Design HEV Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · FH22 FOC

The 2022 Toyota Yaris Cross Design HEV Auto currently presents a stable and sound mechanical condition. The most recent MOT on 9 January 2026 at 22,196 miles passed with zero defects, mirroring the entirely clean pass recorded on 16 July 2025 at 19,910 miles. This demonstrates a consistently stable maintenance trend with no recurring faults or advisories to suggest underlying mechanical deterioration. The recorded mileage of 22,196 miles equates to an annual average of roughly 5,549 miles, which is notably low for a vehicle of this age. Between the July 2025 test and the January 2026 test, the odometer advanced by just 2,286 miles over a six-month period. Such low utilization often points to short-trip driving or prolonged standing, patterns that can prevent engine oil from reaching optimal operating temperature and cause moisture accumulation in the exhaust system. The MOT data itself is sparse, comprising only two clean records, leaving the earlier service history unverified by these specific tests. Despite the flawless MOT record, a buyer should inspect specific components susceptible to low-mileage degradation. Examine the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and the tread for flat spots, as stationary vehicles often develop these faults. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion, a common issue when pads sit stationary against rotors for extended periods, which can lead to binding or judder. Inspect the suspension bushes and exhaust mounts for perishing, as rubber components deteriorate with age regardless of mileage. Given the hybrid powertrain, assess the high-voltage battery's state of health and listen for any abnormal relay clicks upon startup, ensuring the hybrid system engages smoothly without hesitation.
