Vehicle2002 Toyota Prius
Standard issue NHW-11 "Classic" Prius, bought at almost 159k miles complete with scratched up right side, dead batteries and seized engine.
DrivetrainHybrid-electric
Batteries0.00 Volt,
EV Miles
Start:159,000 Miles (255,831 Kilometers)
Current:173,000 Miles (278,357 Kilometers)
Total:14,000 Miles (22,526 Kilometers)
Conversion Timeswapped the engine/transaxle assembly to get the car to run again, then had to swap the dying Hybrid battery also, now my wife is enjoying her "new" car. Put new front brake pads in after doing 3,000 miles with it - the original were worn out.
Conversion Cost$2500 for the complete car, $200 to have a friend tow it to my town. Purchase of good used engine offset by sale of transaxle to help another Prius with bad MG2 stator windings get back on the road, sale of the inverter that came with the used engine and eventually the sale of the bad engine. Finally $650 for a good used replacement Hybrid battery. The dead 12V battery just needed a good charge.
