    HV batteries die quicker in hot states so I would try to buy with a maximum end game mileage of 175k miles if you are down south.

    I bought my 2010 in mid July at 148k and I'm about to hit 158k. No problems.

    Are those 265K miles highway, in town or a combination?

    HI Lisa,

    They are mainly highway miles as I drive cancer patients all over the province of Ontario to various hospitals.

    I know you only asked for 2010-2012, but last week, the HV battery died on my 2014 Prius with 87K miles. The dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree! :eek: Toyota replaced the battery pack free of charge under warranty. Tech said it was a $5K repair..
