Hybrid against the other Toyota Rav4 versions
| Fuel | Pass rate | Tests |
|---|---|---|
| Hybrid | 92.6% | 47,676 |

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 Toyota Rav4 specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 92.6%, and this hybrid version sits 7.9 points above the 84.7% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
The hybrid Toyota Rav4 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 Toyota Rav4 had covered 43,461 miles at test, against 94,851 for the diesel and 103,530 for the petrol. That is below average for a car this age, worth a mileage-consistency check since an unusually low reading is sometimes clocking rather than luck.
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 Toyota Rav4 page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
