Toyota C-HR MOT reliability

In 2025, 85.9% of Toyota C-HR MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Toyota C-HRs tested pass 84.6% of the time, so the Toyota C-HR does better than average for its age, by 1.3 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 85.9%.

Toyota C-HR MOT failures

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment is the most common reason a Toyota C-HR fails its MOT, appearing on 37.7% of failed tests. A failed test can have defects in more than one category, so shares add up to more than 100%. 3.0% of Toyota C-HR tests found at least one dangerous defect, against 7.3% for all cars.

Most common Toyota C-HR MOT defects and advisories

The single most common reason a Toyota C-HR failed its MOT in 2025 was “Wipers: does not clear the windscreen effectively”, on 27.4% of 14,477 failed tests. 33.3% of tests ended with at least one advisory, a problem to watch that did not fail the test; the most common was “Tread depth: worn close to legal limit or worn on edge”. The same fault on any wheel or side counts once.

Toyota C-HR by year

6 years of the Toyota C-HR, by year of first registration, have their own page with MOT results, common faults, mileage and how many are left. Against all cars of the same age, the 2017 cars did best at their 2025 MOT (82.6% passed first time) and the 2020 cars worst (85.3%).

Toyota C-HR engine sizes and fuel types

Of the 142,448 Toyota C-HRs licensed in the UK at the end of 2025, 76.9% have an engine of 1,701cc to 1,800cc, and 16.6% have an engine of 1,901cc to 2,000cc. The share with an engine of 1,101cc to 1,200cc has fallen from 43.3% in 2016 to 6.5%. Petrols made up 43.3% of those licensed in 2016 and 6.5% in 2025.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.

Toyota C-HR fuel economy and CO2

The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Toyota C-HR from 2017, and still lists it. On the WLTP test (listings 2019 to 2026), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and petrol hybrid versions ranges from 34.0 to 60.1 mpg, with CO2 of 105 to 188 g/km; electric versions have an official range of 285 to 377 miles; plug-in hybrid versions are rated at 313.9 to 353.1 mpg (weighted). On the older NEDC test (listings 2017 to 2018), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and petrol hybrid versions ranges from 44.8 to 74.3 mpg, with CO2 of 86 to 144 g/km.

• Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
• NEDC figures (in VCA’s data until September 2018) and WLTP figures (from the 2019 guide) come from different tests, so they are shown separately and should not be compared.
• Plug-in hybrid figures are VCA’s weighted values, which count driving on battery power as well as on fuel.
• Electric cars produce no exhaust CO2; range and miles per kWh are VCA’s official figures.
• Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was listed. Matched from VCA’s model names “C-HR MY21”, “C-HR”, “C-HR Plug-in”, “C-HR MY22”. How we use VCA’s figures.

Toyota C-HR safety recalls

DVSA lists 15 safety recalls for the Toyota C-HR since 1992, the first in 2017. The most recent was launched on 1 December 2025.

All 15 Toyota C-HR recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Toyota C-HR. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
