Our Verdict
The 2020 Toyota C-HR presents a mixed picture, with a recent MOT pass but recurring failures in 2023 and 2025. While its low mileage and hybrid efficiency are positives, the inconsistent MOT history warrants caution.
Prioritise a pre-purchase inspection focusing on the hybrid system and electrical components, as MOT failures may indicate unresolved faults. Verify service records to confirm maintenance of the 1.987L hybrid engine. Negotiate based on the MOT history, but note the recent pass may indicate repairs. Be wary of potential hidden costs from repeated failures.
The hybrid powertrain should deliver strong fuel economy, likely 45-55 mpg on the combined cycle. As a hybrid, it falls into a low emissions band (likely £0 road tax). Insurance group estimates for C-HRs typically range from 15-20, with premiums around £600-£800 annually. Maintenance costs may be higher due to hybrid components, but the recent MOT pass suggests no major issues. Estimated annual running cost: £800-£1,000.
Inspect the hybrid battery and electrical systems for signs of degradation, as MOT failures may relate to these components. Check for fluid leaks, particularly around the engine and hybrid system. Test the start-stop function and verify that all warning lights on the dashboard operate correctly. Review service history for any hybrid-specific maintenance records.
This 2020 Toyota C-HR has a clean MOT from December 2025 but shows two MOT failures in 2023 and 2025 at similar mileages. Its 30,328 miles are below average for a six-year-old vehicle, and the hybrid powertrain offers potential fuel economy benefits. However, the repeated failures raise concerns about underlying issues.
No aggregate MOT data available for the Toyota C-HR model to assess broader reliability trends.
