2021 Prius Prime 1k+ miles for sale

I personally wouldn't buy it unless I drove a lot and/or planned to sell it before 2031. I believe hybrid batteries are meant to be driven. If you drive an average amount, it would probably be a better value to buy one with 40,000-60,000 miles on it, as long as it has been serviced without evidence of an accident and is in good shape. I just went on Car Gurus and it looks like you can get a 2021 Prius Prime LE with 44K miles for 23K in Framingham, MA. However, Toyota warranties the battery for 10 years, 150,000 miles. I believe it is transferable. Thus, if you drive a lot, the vehicle you mentioned starts to make sense. For example, if you drive more than 24,000 miles a year and want a 2021 Prius Prime, you would need one with 0-6,000 miles on it to get the full 10 years out of the warranty. The battery should last more than 10 years, but if you are one of the unlucky ones and the battery dies when it is 8-10 years old it will be nice for it to still be under 150,000 miles. I don't know anything about "gold coverage," so that may change things. I wouldn't drive out there without knowing if the gold coverage increases the 10 year/150,000 mile warranty on the battery. I think time wears these batteries more than miles, except for some extreme examples, like taxis.

 

You effectively have a 6 year, 149K mile warranty on the EV system. If MA is a CARB state, other CARB state warranties also applies.
The issue here is, was the traction battery kept at 100% charge the entire time it was dormant? That would not be good, but you can fall back on the long traction battery warranty. I would clarify the traction battery warranty and proceed with caution. Negotiate the price down further - if your able to put 149K additional miles on that car within 6 years - I'd say that's a pretty good gamble. You've only got a year and 59K miles left on the power-train warranty, possibly less it the car was first sold in late 2020.

Hope this helps.....
