He said the older Priuses they need to replace hybrid battery at 300-500,000km but the newer ones can last a million plus.

He then proceeded to tell me he has a tattoo of Toyota on his shoulder.

I’m like yeah I totally identify with that. No wonder they drive these things around. Even with a million KMs on it, it still felt pretty tight and no worse for wear than anything else from 2017.
thats the thing about the toyota Hybrid stuff. So common amongst taxis now that there are plenty of independent sources that will fix the batteries or knows those cars better even better than Toyota does.

Have to applaud the independent surrey garages this time - they have very affordable solutions on fixing those Toyota Batteries and they do it quick too.
