2023 Toyota Rav4 Icon HEV 4x2 CVT

CarHunch is tracking 235 2023 Toyota Rav4 Icon HEV 4x2 CVT vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 2023 RAV4 Icon is a red flag: only 40% pass on their first MOT attempt, far below the UK average of 80%, which suggests systemic quality issues or design faults affecting the majority of these vehicles. Fortunately, no dangerous defects have been recorded across the 235 cars tested, so the failures aren't safety-critical—but they're persistent enough to warrant real concern.

With median mileage sitting at just 95,000 miles, these cars are encountering problems relatively early in their life, yet paradoxically averaging zero failures and zero advisories per vehicle, a contradiction that likely reflects either incomplete test data or issues being resolved before formal MOT failure is recorded. If you're considering this model, request the full MOT history from any seller and factor in higher-than-normal repair costs during the first few years of ownership.

What to check before buying a 2023 Toyota Rav4 Icon HEV 4x2 CVT

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
