2022 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · WM72 LLN

The most recent DVSA MOT test for this 2022 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT was conducted on 29 December 2025, at which point the vehicle passed with no defects or advisories recorded against it. This represents the cleanest possible test outcome and indicates that, as of the inspection date, all statutory items checked under the MOT regime satisfied the minimum roadworthiness standards prescribed by the DVSA. With only a single test result on the record at present, the maintenance trend can be regarded as stable, and given that the first MOT for this vehicle would have fallen due in December 2025, it appears the keeper submitted the car at the earliest opportunity following its third anniversary of registration. This is generally a positive indicator of conscientious ownership. The recorded mileage of 30,403 miles against an age of approximately four years equates to an annual usage rate of around 7,600 miles, which is broadly typical for a privately owned compact hybrid crossover of this type. There are no gaps or anomalies in the mileage progression that would suggest long-term standing followed by sudden accumulation of miles. This pattern of moderate, consistent usage is mechanically favourable, as it avoids the extremes of accelerated wear associated with high-mileage driving and the calendar-based degradation issues that can affect very low-mileage or infrequently used vehicles. For a hybrid of this generation, which pairs a 1.8 or 2.0 litre Atkinson-cycle petrol engine with an electric drivetrain, this level of use should have allowed both the internal combustion engine and the hybrid system components to operate through regular thermal cycles and state-of-charge variations, which is beneficial for long-term battery health and engine lubrication. Although the MOT record is clean and unblemished, a prospective buyer should still conduct a series of age-and-mileage-appropriate physical inspections prior to purchase. The tyres, being four years old, should be carefully examined for sidewall perishing and cracking caused by UV exposure rather than purely by tread depth, as ageing rubber can deteriorate even on lightly used vehicles. The 12V auxiliary battery, which is a known service item on Toyota hybrid models of this era, should be load-tested or its production date verified, as flat or weakened cells can cause warning lights and drivability issues. The brake discs and calipers should be inspected for corrosion or binding arising from periods of standing, and a firm pedal feel should be confirmed during a road test. The hybrid system warning indicators should illuminate correctly during the ignition sequence, and any persistent lights or messages on the driver display should be investigated with a diagnostic read prior to commitment. In addition to the above, time-based servicing should be verified regardless of the modest mileage, particularly the replacement of brake fluid, which is subject to hygroscopic degradation and is typically scheduled at two-year intervals by Toyota. Coolant condition for the petrol engine and the dedicated inverter coolant should also be checked, along with the condition of the engine oil and oil filter, the spark plugs, and the hybrid transaxle fluid, all of which are governed by calendar intervals as well as mileage. The suspension should be examined for worn bushes, settled coil springs, and any clonks or knocking over uneven surfaces, and the underbody should be inspected for corrosion or fluid leaks, particularly around the rear suspension subframe and the exhaust heat shielding. A thorough road test should include steady-state cruising, gentle acceleration to engage the petrol engine, and a series of brake applications from moderate speed to confirm smooth deceleration without shudder or pulling, ensuring that the overall mechanical condition matches the immaculate MOT history presented.
