AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

A remarkably straightforward path of roadworthiness defines this Toyota Yaris, showing clean test passes across its initial statutory inspections with the most recent evaluation conducted successfully on the sixteenth of July, two thousand and twenty-six. The only blemishes noted on the record were minor defects recorded for both front windscreen wiper blades, indicating a standard operational profile devoid of structural failures, suspension degradation, or braking system faults. This stable trajectory suggests that the vehicle has cleared its initial mandatory tests without requiring remedial work for wear-and-tear items, though prospective buyers must still verify that the absence of MOT advisories is supported by a comprehensive physical examination and a documented service history. Accumulating twenty-eight thousand nine hundred and twenty-nine miles over approximately four years yields an average of roughly seven thousand two hundred miles annually, placing the vehicle squarely within typical usage parameters for a modern hybrid hatchback. This consistent mileage accumulation means the powertrain and hybrid battery system have experienced regular operational cycles without prolonged periods of stationary storage or excessive fleet-style mileage compression. Mechanically, a vehicle with this balanced usage profile generally avoids the specific degradation patterns associated with either severe low-mileage inactivity or high-mileage subframe and drivetrain fatigue, though standard consumable wear on tyres and brakes remains a factor to confirm during a physical viewing. During the pre-purchase inspection and test drive, attention should be directed toward the hybrid regenerative braking transition and the continuously variable transmission operation, listening for any unusual whines or hesitation under acceleration and deceleration. Although the windscreen wiper blades were flagged as minor defects during the latest test, check that the wiper arms themselves operate smoothly across the glass and that the washer jets function correctly. Furthermore, inspect the front and rear suspension assemblies over uneven road surfaces to ensure there are no premature knocks or rattles from the anti-roll bar links and shock absorbers, which can occasionally manifest even on vehicles with otherwise clean statutory testing histories. Finally, verify the condition of the high-voltage hybrid components and auxiliary battery health, ensuring the petrol engine transitions seamlessly under load and that all dashboard displays report correct charging and drive modes. Inspect the underbody for any signs of kerb damage or premature surface corrosion on the exhaust system and suspension wishbones, and confirm that all tyres maintain adequate tread depth well above the legal limit. A thorough manual check of these specific areas will ensure that the clean statutory test record translates accurately into reliable, trouble-free motoring.

Our Verdict

This 2022 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT is

With only two MOTs on file so far, the picture is still building, and you should ask the seller for the full Toyota service history — ideally stamped by a main dealer — to confirm the hybrid system has been checked at the correct intervals. Hybrid components (inverter coolant pump, 12V battery, and the hybrid transaxle) are the main long-term cost items on a Yaris HEV, so evidence of the 5-year hybrid health check being carried out would be reassuring. Negotiate on the basis of replacing both front wiper blades, as the 2026 test flagged them as defective on both sides.

Pricing for a 2022 Yaris Design HEV CVT in white with sub-30k miles typically sits in the £13,000–£15,000 retail band, depending on condition and specification. Check that the infotainment system, reversing camera, and climate control are all functioning, as these can be costly to repair out of warranty. A pre-purchase inspection at a Toyota dealer or hybrid specialist is worthwhile given the relative complexity of the hybrid system compared with a conventional petrol Yaris.

The Yaris HEV officially returns around 55–65 mpg in mixed driving, with many owners reporting 60+ mpg in real-world use — significantly better than the non-hybrid Yaris. Road tax is free under current rules thanks to its Euro 6 AP status and low CO2 output, and the car falls into a low insurance group (typically group 10–12E), keeping premiums competitive for new and younger drivers. Servicing is required every 12 months or 10,000 miles, with Toyota hybrid services costing roughly £180–£250 depending on whether the work is done at a main dealer or independent specialist.

The biggest variable cost on a Yaris HEV is tyre replacement, which the model-level MOT data highlights as the most common failure point. A set of quality tyres will set you back around £300–£400 fitted. Allowing for fuel, tax, insurance, servicing, and routine wear items, an owner should budget somewhere in the region of £1,400–£1,800 per year, though this can drop further if mileage is low and most journeys are short urban trips where the hybrid system shines.

The 2026 MOT flagged both front windscreen wiper blades as defective, so on inspection check for streaking, skipping, or split rubber — replacing them is a £20–£40 DIY job but worth reflecting in any price negotiation. Tyres are the single most common MOT failure point across the Yaris range according to the aggregated data, so measure tread depth across all four corners and check the sidewalls for cracks, bulges, or uneven wear that might indicate a tracking or suspension issue.

Beyond the MOT-recorded items, inspect the hybrid system warning lights on start-up (the dashboard should display 'READY' with no amber hybrid warnings), listen for any unusual whining from under the bonnet (a sign of inverter coolant pump wear), and confirm the 12V auxiliary battery is holding charge — a failing 12V battery is a common cause of confusing hybrid warning lights on Yaris models. Also check the CVT transmission behaviour: it should pull away smoothly without any juddering or surging, and the gearbox should not emit any clonks or vibrations when reversing.

Registered in July 2022, this white Yaris Hybrid has covered 28,929 miles across roughly four years of use, which works out to around 7,000 miles per year — close to the model average of 6,504. Two MOT tests are recorded (2025 and 2026), both of which passed, with only two minor advisory items flagged at the most recent test. The Yaris range as a whole enjoys a 93.1% MOT pass rate across 57,538 analysed examples, which is a reassuring backdrop for this specific car.

The Toyota Yaris range shows a 93.1% MOT pass rate across more than 57,000 examples analysed, placing it among the more reliable superminis on UK roads. Tyres are the single most common MOT failure reason at the model level, rather than mechanical or structural defects.
