Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Toyota C Hr Gr Sport HEV CVT?

This 2022 C-HR GR Sport HEV passes its MOT first time at 93.3%, well above the UK average of 80%, and dangerous defects are rare at just 1.4%—a genuinely strong result for a hybrid. The exceptionally low failure rate of 0.08 per vehicle suggests the powertrain and electrics are holding up reliably so far.

At just over 20,000 miles median, these cars are still relatively young, so this is a snapshot of early reliability rather than long-term durability. The 0.5 advisories per vehicle average is minimal, meaning buyers should expect few surprises at the next test, though you'll want to focus your pre-purchase inspection on the CVT gearbox and hybrid battery health given the specialist repairs they can attract.

The 2022 Toyota C Hr Gr Sport HEV CVT passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (96.1% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
