Used value estimate
2013 Toyota Prius value
By Hari Vinayak · Updated 2026-06-12
Quick answer
A 2013 Toyota Prius in good condition with average mileage (about 162,500 miles) is worth roughly $5,950 in a private-party sale — a fair range of $5,450 to $6,450, or about $6,850 at a dealer. Note: 2013 is a flagged year for this model (2010–2014) — Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far. Expect to pay at the lower end and budget for that risk.

See all Toyota Prius years to avoidWhat to check before you pay
- 2010–2015: EGR system clogs with carbon, raising combustion temps — a known path to head gasket failure; cold-start rattle or misfire is the warning sign
- 2010–2015: brake actuator failure — listen for an abnormal pump noise and check for ABS/brake warning lights
- Catalytic converter theft is rampant — look underneath for shiny welds or aftermarket cats, which can fail emissions
