Generally very reliable. Take care of it. I wouldn't expect anything aside from gas, brakes, oil, and tires until 200k

I have a 2015 with 53,XXX.

How many miles you think yours last before you gotta change battery?

 

[TravisNJ]

I have no idea. It can die tomorrow or it can die in 10 years.

Pretty much. Some have gone extremely high miles. Just take care of it and hope for the best. It's all you can really do with any car unless you get lucky or get unlucky. Mine is at 138,000

Rman, have you done a cvt fluid flush yet?

A Prius can go to 300,000 miles.
The electric motor does the heavy work of acceleration.

R.P.M.'S are kept low.
80,000 miles is barely broke in for a Prius.

Battery should last 10 years.

Here is an example of a Prius taxi in Austria,with 600,000 Mile's( a million km) on its ORIGINAL BATTERY.

P.S. - clean the battery cooling fan regularly.inspect every few months.

As long as you change the synthetic oil every 10000 miles and cvt' s every 60000, you''ll have very few problems. The gas engine works most of the times at very low rpm's. the electric kicks in at start up and when the car needs extra power, making the gas engine to work smoothly most of the time

2013 Prius with 14,xxx. The car sat for 16 months here without been driven so I am running it as much as I can before the lease is up in November.

Agreed. Excessive heat is the enemy of both batteries and engines -- all types of both.

...anybody has any experience with a high mileage prius,...

I don't think it's quite high mileage, but I acquired a 2007 this year with about 145k miles on it. It's now at about 165k miles.

When I think of a high mileage passenger vehicle, I personally deem 200k miles to be the floor, however, between engineering advances and urban sprawl over the past few decades, I can certainly see why some folks don't consider anything less than 250k miles to be high mileage.
