Toyota Previa insurance risk: frequently asked questions

What is the GVRI for the Toyota Previa?
The Toyota Previa has a Gera Vehicle Risk Index (GVRI) of 49/100 (Moderate Risk), computed from 15,191 DVSA Anonymised MOT class-4 (car) normal tests in 2016. The UK fleet average GVRI is 37/100. A GVRI of 0 = lowest risk; 100 = highest.
What is the MOT fail rate for the Toyota Previa?
The Toyota Previa MOT fail rate is 34.6% based on 15,191 class-4 normal MOT tests recorded by DVSA in 2016. This means 34.6% of tests resulted in a 'Fail' outcome. The UK class-4 normal test fail rate across the fleet is 25.0%.
Is the Toyota Previa a high-risk car to insure?
The GVRI of 49/100 places the Toyota Previa in the Moderate Risk band, above the UK fleet average of 37/100. Higher GVRI means higher mechanical defect risk from real MOT data, which correlates with claim risk. However, insurance premiums also depend on driver profile, postcode, NCB, annual mileage, and policy type — the GVRI is one indicator, not a premium quote.
How is the Gera Vehicle Risk Index calculated?
GVRI = 0.6 × MOT_fail_rate + 0.4 × avg_defect_severity_norm, min-max scaled 0–100. MOT fail rate = failed tests ÷ total class-4 normal tests. Defect severity = mean severity of 'F' items per failed test (1 = standard failure, 3 = dangerous item). Full methodology on the GVRI methodology page. Source: DVSA 2016 data, OGL v3.0.
