2023 Toyota Yaris Icon HEV CVT

CarHunch is tracking 5,757 2023 Toyota Yaris Icon HEV CVT vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 2023 Yaris Icon HEV is failing its MOT at a catastrophic rate: just 6.2% of the 5,757 vehicles tested passed first time, compared to the UK average of 80%. The dangerous defect rate is mercifully low at 0.2%, but the sheer scale of failure suggests systemic issues affecting nearly all examples of this specific specification.

At a median mileage of 17,174 miles, these are barely run-in cars, yet they're accumulating defects that shouldn't exist this early—the average vehicle has already racked up 0.01 failures per car despite negligible wear. If you're considering buying this model, request a full pre-purchase inspection focused on whatever is causing near-universal failures in this cohort, and strongly consider whether a different trim or fuel type would be more reliable.

What to check before buying a 2023 Toyota Yaris Icon HEV 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.
