Best Year to Buy?
Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2013 model has the highest MOT pass rate at 94%, while the 2003 model has the lowest at 78%. The 2022 scores 98%, but cars from 2022 weren't due their first routine MOT until 2025, so its figure isn't compared here. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger, so compare years of a similar age.

About the 2022 Toyota Alphard
The 2022 Toyota Alphard is a family car. Our records list a 2036cc hybrid engine, though engines vary between versions. 42 MOT tests were recorded on this model in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It ranks in the top 24% of all 2022 models for MOT pass rate.
With an average of 52,055 miles recorded at its 2024 MOT tests, Toyota Alphard owners cover more miles than the average driver. High-mileage examples should be checked carefully for wear on suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components.
2022 Toyota Alphard Fuel Costs
The 2036cc hybrid engine offers a reasonable balance between performance and economy. Our estimate uses around 30 mpg, the figure for a petrol engine of this size, which works out to roughly £1,958 per year with petrol at 174.57p per litre (GOV.UK weekly average, week of 19 October 2026; based on 7,400 miles per year). As a hybrid it should use less than that, and real-world fuel costs depend a lot on how much electric-only driving you do.
What does it cost to own a 2022 Toyota Alphard?
Total estimated annual running cost is £2,413 (£201/month), broken down as £1,958 fuel, £200 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 98% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.
Toyota Alphard Reliability Trend
The Toyota Alphard has maintained consistent MOT pass rates across model years, varying by only 1 percentage point.
Buying a Used 2022 Toyota Alphard
At 4 years old, the Toyota Alphard offers good value with plenty of life remaining. Most manufacturer warranties will have expired, so a pre-purchase inspection is worth the cost. If you're flexible on year, the 2013 model has the highest pass rate at 94%. Note: with only 42 tests in our data, these figures should be treated as indicative rather than definitive.
Common Issues to Watch For
These are typical issues for cars of this age, fuel type and engine size, not faults recorded on this model's MOT tests. Use them as a checklist when you view one.
Hybrid Battery Health
Low riskAfter 4 years, hybrid battery capacity may have reduced. A full replacement costs £2,000-£4,000, though reconditioning is cheaper at £500-£1,500.
Inverter and Power Electronics
Low riskThe inverter converts DC to AC for the electric motor. Failures are expensive (£1,500+) but relatively rare. Listen for unusual buzzing sounds.
Regenerative Braking
Low riskBrake discs can corrode from reduced use (the electric motor handles most braking). Surface rust is normal but deep pitting needs attention.
Service History
Low riskAlways request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
