The hybrid battery is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles. There is also a new Toyota Hybrid battery warranty that applies to all vehicles starting with 2020 model year. Plus, he mentioned that replacement cost is getting cheaper as time goes by. The Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician I interviewed for my story felt most Hybrid batteries will last at least 180,000 to 200,000 miles. I am referring to the large battery pack as opposed to the 12V battery. I recently wrote a Torque News story about Toyota Hybrid battery length. And it is perfectly normal to have such concerns. “The battery is really expensive to replace.” “The hybrid battery is going to wear out too soon.” I have heard these same concerns repeatedly over the past 15 years I have been studying Toyota hybrid vehicles. The average in the auto industry is 6.1%īut one of the most common hesitations or areas of concern for potential Toyota Prius owners, along with other popular models like RAV4 Hybrid or 2021 Toyota Venza, is with the hybrid battery itself. An amazing 13.7% of 15-year-old or older Prius cars are still being driven by their original owners. Actually, it has been this way for two decades since Prius was first introduced to the public.Ī recent study by found that Prius is the vehicle that original owners keep the longest. More information about pricing, fuel economy, and hybrid horsepower is expected later this summer before updated Corollas go on sale.Toyota hybrids are known to be among the most reliable vehicles currently on the market.

The 2023 Corolla uses an updated version of Toyota Safety Sense, enhancing an already impressive slew of standard drivers-assist features such as forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking, lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, plus optional adaptive headlights and front and rear parking assist. Corolla XSE and XLE's larger 7.0-inch instrument cluster is also revised. The hatchback gets a new Inferno color, and it's also now available in the previously sedan-exclusive metallic Blue Crush.Įvery Corolla now comes with a redesigned 8.0-inch infotainment screen, and Toyota has updated its digital gauge cluster display with new graphics on all models. Sedans get Underground and Midnight Black metallic, which replace 2022's dark Black Sand Pearl. New paint is available for both body styles. A new set of optional 18-inch Graphite-colored wheels have also been added, and SE and XSE trims get a rear diffuser to emphasize a sporty appearance. The Corolla Cross hybrid is expected to achieve 37 mpg combined, while the 2022 Corolla hybrid currently gets a combined EPA-estimated 52 mpg with front-wheel drive.īoth the sedan and hatchback get subtle visual tweaks, including redesigned grilles and refreshed rear bumpers with new chrome accents. Both front- and all-wheel-drive hybrids will use a 1.8-liter engine, so it's unlikely the improved system will match the all-wheel-drive Corolla Cross hybrid's claimed output of 194 horsepower because the crossover will use a larger 2.0-liter engine. The current front-drive Corolla produces 121 horsepower from its 1.8-liter engine and 71-hp motor, matching the total output of the e-AWD Toyota Prius. Toyota says the additional rear-mounted motor for all-wheel-drive Corollas will increase horsepower output but hasn't said by how much.
