Second hand hybrids Now that hybrid cars (using a hybrid of a normal petrol engine and a large battery to run the car, eg. Toyota Prius) have been around a while, they are starting to hit the used car market. Something to keep in mind, particularly when looking at 2nd hand, is that like all batteries, the cars power unit battery will need replacing at some point. The general consensus is replacement at approximately 10 years, costing roughly $3000, thats pretty close to the lifespan and cost of an engine in todays cheaper built cars. popularmechanics/cars/how-to/repair/how-long-will-hybrid-car-batteries-last-16747590
