See alot of "battery replacement cost" blah blah. 1) I have had 4 hybrid work cars (3 Camry and 1 Prius) All driven to 150k or more miles without battery issue. 2) Battery is warrantied by Toyota for 10 yrs unlimited miles 3) If you drive car alot the battery will last along time. If it sits 5 days week and you dont drive alot the battery has a small chance to be bad in 10 yrs. 10 YEARS and that like worst case if sits and not driven combined with being outside in really hot or really cold or both (Northeast). I've never seen it though in 4 cars.
My 2006 Prius's original battery went to 150,000 miles before needing replacement.
I have put 50k+ miles on my 09 Highlander Hybrid in the last 2 years. It charges to 76% and provides 27-30mpg depending on conditions. I love it.
My old prius was 16 years old and 370.000km battery was fine
I had a 2008 Highlander hybrid that I sold to a coworker. The battery is still strong but the fan that cools the batteries gave out. He had that fixed and it is still running fine today.
My Prius is 13 years old with 187,000 miles still getting 47mpg. I think the battery paid for itself 100,000 miles ago.
I replaced mine in my 2018 GLE63s with an aftermarket one from Auto Zone (Duralast Platinum). I finally got my start/stop feature back which I had forgotten about and also forgotten how annoying it was to have it ????
I did just replace the battery in the Trans Am in the fall after 15 years (bought when I picked the car up - I really got my money's worth on that Duralast). It had never been on a tender and that car sees maybe 1500 miles in a big year. But of course it also has virtually zero parasitic drain. I didn't even realize how weak it was progressively getting until I had a no start moving it out of the garage for a wash. It started so much easier on the new batt, I was actually laughing.
Had the same problem today... Battery died (ok, a few cold days in Belgium , nights up to -5°C) and assistance for jumpstarting it was necessary, luckily I had autoclub membership. Car is only 30 months old. We drive it multiple times a week for shopping and trips to the seaside. Checked the car in to the Toyota garage and test of the battery was negative, battery was dead. I was very pleased they replaced the battery with a new one under warranty!
we see many 2 year old Duralast batteries that have failed.
