Why the fuel type changes the number

Hybrids sidestep most emissions failures and tend to do lighter urban miles, though the extra weight tells on tyres and brakes.

On the Honda Cr-Z specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 80.7%, and this hybrid version sits 1.2 points above the 79.5% model average.

What it means if you are buying one

The hybrid Honda Cr-Z is the stronger side of this model on MOT data. Still judge the individual car, but the fuel type is a mild point in its favour. Check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.

Mileage is part of the answer

The average hybrid Honda Cr-Z had covered 85,190 miles at test, against 95,784 for the petrol and 96,590 for the electric. That is above average, the point where suspension bushes, drop links and exhaust corrosion start showing up as advisories before they become failures.

Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Honda Cr-Z page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
