Higher capacity battery mod?

Not practical.
It likely would "upset" the battery handling computer, both for driving and charging.
And the cost of the additional battery probably wouldn't be recovered during the remaining life of the car, if you only use a few ounces of gas a day in your normal commute.
AND leaving the gas in the tank too long is not good either.

 

unfortunately, there are no kits. there are a few who have done their own systems iirc, but it is hugely complicated, an extreme labor of love, and takes up more hatch space as well

 

This is my battery extension for my Prius Plug-in, with some very economical scrap batteries from a Peugeot Ion and with results of more than 65 kilometers of autonomy on the highway at 92 / kmh.

This is the forum where I started and is the information about my project:

It does not allow me to post links! I think I'm very new to this chat ... You can search the web for "Mi Toyota prius "Fabricacion Pack ampliacion bateria"
Someone who has more time here can post it for me.

It is a forum in Spanish, but you can use the google web translator.

 

How did you connect this additional battery to the car?

 

@CartageneroHibrid Thanks for the project title - here are a few links.

I can't find the xevna.es page but it might now be only at facebook or instagram.

THIS IS AWESOME!!

 

You can also keep all your cargo space and upgrade your HV battery with a pack that is half the weight of any other pack.

Get more mpg and keep everything looking stock.

The Nex packs are for a normal Prius, not a Plugin. As fare as I know NexPower does not sell packs for the Plugin.
