We are buying a 2022 Rav4 hybrid right now and Toyota lists it as a li-ion battery. 1. Affectionate_Wing112. • 7 mo. ago. In my opinion, since I had a NiMH 2020 and now have a 2022 with Li-ON, you are fortunate to have that battery bank. Not, heat sensitive, responses well to sitting idle and gas motor does not run as much on startup as the

In 2016, the hybrid battery pack died. I didn't want to shop for a new car and I really wanted to make it to 200,000 miles. I decided to replace the battery. I shopped around a bit. The dealer wanted $3,500 and their battery came with a 3-year warranty. The Blue Book value of my car with 180k miles was only about $3,000. As far as the battery, unless the battery gets a bad cell, you shouldn't need to replace it. Usually, that'll happen early on the cars life (so it'd be covered by warranty). Even if it loses a lot of capacity over 10 years, a PHEV will just spend more time in hybrid mode vs ev mode, so that's not a real concern. My brother bought a 2009 Toyota Prius Hybrid for his work (UBER in 2009) and it now has 900,000+ (900k+) miles soon to hit 1 million mark. He replaced the batteries one time at 600k and its still in a good shape mechanically (engine etc.) but in a OK shape (needs fresh paint, some dents etc.) Only get a Toyota Hybrid. Hybrids in general are great. They have their pros and cons. With the Toyota, I have heard many stories were the batteries lasted way beyond 250k. Even if the batteries last to 100k-150k. That only a 1500 dollar job over a ten year span. I would get one if I commuted or planned to do alot of ridesharing. The recommended duration to do this is every 3 to 6 months.
