Comparison of Toyota VELLFIRE versus average car of the same model year.

The Toyota Vellfire, a luxury minivan, has garnered attention for its spacious interior and family-friendly features since its introduction. Known for its reliable performance and comfort, the Vellfire appeals to those seeking a blend of utility and luxury. Review of MOT inspection data from 2008 to 2014 reveals insights into its reliability and common issues experienced by owners.

Overall, the Vellfire demonstrates commendable reliability compared to average vehicles from the same years. For instance, in 2008, the Vellfire recorded approximately 112 defects per 100 tests, significantly lower than the average of 337 defects for that year, marking a 66.8% improvement. This trend of superior reliability continues through most years, with the model reaching its peak in 2014, where it had just 51 defects per 100 tests against an average of 194. This indicates a 73.6% better performance than the typical vehicle of that year.

Recurring issues for the Vellfire primarily involve tyre conditions and brake components, which are common across many models and not unique to this vehicle. Notably, problems with tyre tread depth and brake linings worn below the legal limit appear consistently in the inspection data. While such issues are often reflective of driving habits and maintenance practices rather than inherent design flaws, they remain important considerations for potential buyers.

The years 2013 and 2014 stand out as particularly strong performers, with defect rates of 60 and 51, respectively. These figures suggest a refinement in the model's design and engineering over the years. In contrast, the 2010 model year shows a slight dip in performance compared to its predecessors, though it still remains below average.
