As someone who bought their first Prius V (Lithium Ion- Australian Model) in 2013 No issues with any degradation in battery from 12 years ago.
After 16 years and 140k miles, our Prius battery is still going strong.
I bought mine last year 2016 SR5 4WD at 116k miles. I'm at 140k today and it feels like new. I only had to swap the battery because I forgot to check how recent it was when I bought it.
Just a heads up I had same issue with my Titan and it was the battery. I purchased a cheaper battery and 6 months in I get only a click when trying to start truck. Sometimes would start sometimes not. Then I bought the same battery again to see if that would fix the issue. This time it didn\u2019t start at all with the same type of battery, tested 100% charge and 100% battery life. So I said let me try buying a better quality battery just to see if anything happens, sure enough the truck started. It has kept starting ever since.
Duralast is a decent brand, I’ve always went with the gold, no real reason just that it’s what was in the car before.
My neighbor bought a Prius 15 years ago,whoever they came out, the dealer told him it would cost $5000 for a new battery replacement. It lasted until 2024, it cost $1500 to have new battery put in,aftermarket of course
my 2010 4x4 needs a new battery. This one lasted 4 years Duralast Gold.
I usually get a Duralast Gold from pepboys. Not the cheapest model, but not the super premium one either. Most CCA.
Assuming that it's a hybrid and not a PHEV it should run you about $2,500 to have it done professionally, or less than $1000 to do it yourself. At least that was my experience with my Prius.
I've gone through two VW batteries in 32K miles under three years. They suck. Just replaced it with a Duralast Gold from Autozone which has a 3 year full replacement warranty and 5 year prorated.
