    My prius is nearing it's 3 years and it still has the factory fitted Panasonic 12v battery. How do you know your battery is nearing its lifetime ? Or when is the good interval to replace 12v battery ?

    When the car won't start ;) batteries are fine for life. If not, that would be unusual. If your concearned , have it tested at your nearest dealership.
    You should have all ur maintenance done there
