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 Yaris specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 87.7%, and this hybrid version sits 8.7 points above the 79% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
The hybrid Toyota Yaris 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 Yaris had covered 45,303 miles at test, against 71,902 for the petrol and 112,321 for the diesel and 75,141 for the electric. 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 Yaris page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
