What is the real petrol consumption of a Toyota Prius?

I get about 46 mpg (UK) - that's 36mpg (US) in the winter.

In warmer weather (autumn) I was getting around 54 mpg (UK) - that's around 41 mpg (US).

These figures seem way lower than the claims made for this car, which is still pretty new. During the summer of 2008 I managed to get the consumption "up" to around 54-55 mpg, though this is now dropping again as the cold weather sets in. At the annual service the garage informed me that my car was in a normal condition. In many ways this is still a great car, though the handling leaves something to be desired in windy conditions, and I wouldn't want to try to take bends at high speeds.

If Prius 2007 need a brake fluid change when should it be done and how often?

If, as you say, it needs doing then it should be done as soon as possible.

Brake fluid seldom needs changing though it does degenerate over time, mainly by absorbing moisture. The precise detail will be in your manual.

What is an engine imobiliser?

It is a standard feature on the Toyota Prius Hybrid.

The engine immobilizer is a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or bring a Smart Key fob into the vehicle, the key transmits an electronic code to the vehicle. The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key or Smart Key fob matches the code in the vehicle's immobilizer.

How much does the Toyota Prius Battery cost?

They sell the 300 volt traction battery, used, for about $300 on eBay, usually pulled from smashed cars. If you have one, you can return it to the dealer for recycling and they'll give you . . . $300. There's no reason to spend $$$thousands for a new one from the dealer (unless you're an insurance company). If you've got one and it's failed, the dealer can have the single failed cell replaced. Imagine it as being like 200 flashlight batteries all hooked in series, and one of them has leaked. You replace the cell, not the entire pack.

People who don't even own a Prius are always worried the traction battery will wear out. People who actually own one know they don't wear out. It's designed to last as long as the car.


There's also a 12 volt battery for the electronics and dashboard, windshield wipers, radio and such. That one, like any other lead-acid car battery, should be replaced every 5 years in cold climates, or every 7 years in warmer climates. It's dinky (since it doesn't have to crank the engine -- there's no starter motor in a Prius) but it's pricey because it's unique. It's the size of a large motorcycle or garden tractor battery, but the acid won't spill if it's smashed due to an absorbent glass mat inside. People report after-market versions for $100 - $160 and some hand tools for the owner to replace, or even more $$ from the dealer for an original version. Sadly, the terminals are Japanese size, not American size.
