2022 Toyota RAV4 Adventure HEV CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric · GY22 HHT

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy condition following a clean MOT pass on February 4 2026 at 27,754 miles. This result indicates a stable maintenance trend where the owner successfully addressed the critical failures from the previous year. The absence of defects in the most recent inspection suggests that the mechanical and structural components tested are currently operating within acceptable parameters without immediate concern. The mileage profile is consistent with a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between February 2025 and February 2026, the car covered 7,212 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage pattern. This low annual mileage generally suggests reduced wear on the hybrid drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system components compared to high-mileage examples of the same model. The failure on February 4, 2025, at 20,542 miles highlights a lapse in tyre maintenance, as the tester identified deep cuts reaching the cords on the nearside rear, offside rear, and offside front tyres. While these were clearly replaced to achieve the pass the following day, a buyer should still inspect the current tyres for uneven wear or sidewall damage. Given the previous issue with multiple tyres, verifying the wheel alignment is advisable to ensure the previous failures were not caused by underlying geometry damage. Since the record shows no recurring structural corrosion or persistent mechanical failures, the focus should remain on standard consumable checks. A physical inspection should confirm the health of the hybrid battery system and verify the condition of the brake discs and calipers to ensure no binding has occurred during periods of lower usage.
