2020 Toyota C-HR Orange Edition HEV CVT 2.0L Hybrid electric · LS70 SNZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a developing issue regarding rubber component degradation. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 17,609 miles passed without mechanical failure, it introduced advisories for cracking and perishing on all four tyres. This follows a pattern established in October 2024 at 11,586 miles where front tyres showed similar damage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,935 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the October 2023 test at 3,414 miles and the 2024 test, where only 8,172 miles were covered in total. This low-frequency use suggests the car likely sat for long periods, which directly correlates with the perishing and sidewall cracking noted in the later records, as rubber compounds dry out over time when lack of movement regardless of remaining tread depth. A buyer must inspect the physical condition of the tyres immediately, as the recurring advisories indicate they are reaching the end of their structural life despite low mileage. The failure in 2023 for an ineffective windscreen wiper suggests a minor oversight in basic maintenance, but the lack of structural or brake-related failures indicates the chassis and drivetrain remain relatively sound. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from brake rust if the components are not used regularly.
