    I currently own a pristine white 2008 Prius. It ONLY has 13,000 miles on it.

    It has had regular oil changes, including regular tire rotations.

    I am unsure as to what scheduled maintenance, or part thereof, should be performed on this vehicle.

    Thanks!

    If you have the owners manual, and warranty booklet, I would suggest you give them a read, if not, I think there are links on the site which will allow you to view or even download parts of each, or if you have a friend with an 08, borrow a manual. Usually most services are suggested by both months or miles, it seems like the months schedule would get you up to date at this time, probably not too much to do and I'm sure you'll get replies that will be more specific. The one thing I can think of, because of the low mileage, is to check the health of the 12v battery. There is a self test you can perform, again details can be found thru links on the site or in the owners manual.
    lGood luck and enjoy the car.:)
