Petrol against the other Toyota Voxy versions

Why the fuel type changes the number

Petrol cars avoid the DPF and emissions failures that catch diesels, and usually fail on the same consumables as any other car.

On the Toyota Voxy specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 95.2%, and this petrol version sits 13.8 points below the 88.6% model average.

What it means if you are buying one

The petrol Toyota Voxy fails more often than the model average, so budget for the items that catch this fuel type and treat a fresh MOT as worth paying for. Buying a damaged one? run it through the analyzer, check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.

Mileage is part of the answer

The average petrol Toyota Voxy had covered 91,168 miles at test, against 65,682 for the hybrid. 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 Toyota Voxy page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
