2022 Toyota RAV4 Design Phev Auto 2.5L Hybrid electric · VE22 DDA

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition, demonstrating a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test in April 2026 at 86,778 miles resulted in no recorded defects, following a clean pass in January 2026. This indicates that the primary mechanical and safety systems monitored by the DVSA are currently meeting legal standards without immediate failure risks. The mileage profile is significantly high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 21,700 miles per year. Data shows a rapid accumulation of mileage between July 2025 (80,294 miles) and January 2026 (86,678 miles), with over 6,300 miles covered in just six months. This level of use suggests long-distance wayion, which typically places different stresses on the drivetrain and suspension compared to short-cycle city driving. While the recent tests are clean, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of components susceptible to wear under high-frequency use. A buyer should specifically evaluate the condition of the suspension assembly, including shock artwork and bushes, for signs of premature fatigue or leaking. Given that the only fault noted in history was a defective windscreen wiper blade in 2025, the focus should remain on the mechanical longevity of the pads, discs, and the overall health of the hybrid powertrain system.
