2016 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric · RX65 KNO

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 5 February 2026 at 67,093 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows two consecutive years of clean results, indicating that the vehicle has maintained its safety and emissions standards without recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's ten-year age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between the February 2024 test at 48,338 miles and the February 2025 test at 55,643 miles, the car covered 7,305 miles, followed by 11,450 miles leading into the 2026 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, which often prevents the premature degradation seen in hybrid drivetrain and suspension components when vehicles sit stationary stationary. Since the MOT record shows no historical faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age rather than high mileage wear. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as rubber components perish over time regardless of low usage. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes develop surface rust on the calipers. Checking the hybrid battery health via a diagnostic tool remains a priority for this model, as the MOT does not assess the state of the high-voltage system.
