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 Lexus Gs specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 92.1%, and this hybrid version sits 1.3 points above the 90.8% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
The hybrid Lexus Gs 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 Lexus Gs had covered 78,431 miles at test, against 79,357 for the petrol. That is a shade above the middle of the range, still ordinary wear rather than a red flag, but worth checking against the service book for the car's age.
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 Lexus Gs page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
