Defect rate by model year

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

The Toyota Verso, a compact MPV, has been a popular choice for families seeking reliability and versatility since its introduction in the mid-2000s. Known for its spacious interior and practical features, the Verso has garnered a solid reputation in the used car market. However, an examination of its MOT inspection data from 2009 to 2018 reveals a mixed picture regarding its reliability over the years.

Comparatively, the Toyota Verso has shown a consistent performance in terms of defects per 100 tests. In the earlier years, specifically 2009 and 2010, the model recorded defect rates of 327 and 327, respectively, which were notably higher than the average for those years. As the model progressed, the defect rates gradually improved, with 2016 marking a significant drop to 168 defects per 100 tests, outperforming the average of 151. However, even in its best years, the Verso's defect rates remained slightly above average in 2011 and 2012.

Recurring issues across various model years include problems related to brake pipes, tyre tread depth, and suspension components. While these issues are common across many vehicles, they are highlighted in the Verso's data, suggesting that owners should be vigilant about regular maintenance. Notably, the highest rates of defects occurred in 2009 and 2010, while 2016 and 2017 showed the best performance, indicating an upward trend in reliability as the model matured.
