How much mileage moves the price
Using a 2017 Prius as the example. The same spread applies at every year on the table above.
| Mileage | Miles | Fair value | Private party |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lower mileage | 76,500 | $11,100 | $10,200–$12,000 |
| Average mileage | 112,500 | $9,450 | $8,700–$10,200 |
| Higher mileage | 153,000 | $7,600 | $7,000–$8,200 |
Which years to avoid
- 2014 (2010–2014): Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far.
- 2013 (2010–2014): Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far.
- 2012 (2010–2014): Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far.
- 2011 (2010–2014): Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far.
- 2010 (2010–2014): Gen 3's EGR-clogging-to-head-gasket pipeline and $2,000+ brake actuator failures. The riskiest Prius era by far.
What 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
