Buying a used 2018 or 2020

Not sure if or how the schedule might vary in your country, but for North American Prius you can download the US Warranty and Maintenance Booklet, at Toyota Tech Info (US website, just google). Click on the "Manuals" tab on the home page, enter you car's stat's (division, model, year), and you'll see all the pdf format documents, available for download.

I've made a spreadsheet summary of the Toyota schedule, which is event-by-event format, a difficult read (see attached).

 

@Christian Bjork I just did the 100k service on my highlander hybrid and it wasn't even 500 bucks and I don't think it would be any more for a Prius, plus, maybe you can get the dealer to do it if they haven't already. 100k isn't crazy w/ respect to mileage, but to me, the two things you should really be weighing overall:

• the 2018 is a four and has way more equipment than the 2020
• the 2020 has a 10 year/150k mile battery warranty vs. the 8 year/100k of the 2018

Personally, I value equipment and being able to put my eyes on a car in person if possible, so would lean towards the 18, with the bonus of saving a few bucks on the overall outlay. I can't say I'd blame anyone for going to the 2020 for the battery warranty alone though..

 

i like the 2020, and all things being equal, i would opt for it.

but

if you have to have it delivered, does that mean no test drive? in that case, the 18 looks like a fine vehicle, and has a ton of life left in it
