That's 9 points below the average of 82% across all models in our data, so check the year-by-year data carefully before buying. Our records list petrol and hybrid versions.
Best and Worst Years
Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 1999 model has the highest pass rate at 68% from 112 tests. The 1998 model has the lowest at 64%. With just a 4 point gap, pass rates are similar across these years. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger.
Mileage Across Years
The oldest model in our data (1997) averages 107,749 miles, while the newest (2013) averages 53,944 miles. Older models have covered serious mileage, so suspension and drivetrain wear are worth checking.
