I've driven a 2020 Prius Prime for 5 years now. Best car I've ever driven. Through 68,000 kms, I'm averaging 2.0L / 100km's. EV is programmed to not turn on below approx. -20C as a longevity feature. When temperature is below -8 the engine will turn on until warm enough to run EV efficiently.

I use Akebono pads and coated Raybestos rotors. I changed my brakes around the time I got my 07 which was a year ago. I highly doubt you drive like you're street racing or drifting. My brakes still have a hell of a lot of life left in them.
I got a new set this year from Discount Tire. Cost me $831 total including tax for four Yokohama GTX all seasons. I’ve driven almost 4,000 miles on them so far and haven’t had an issue yet.
Got my current tires from Walmart (Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus) and had my local shop install them, I’m more than likely gonna go to Discount Tire for my soon to be needed next set.
I've changed the oil on my Prius over 30 times and never had an issue with my plastic canister. Use the proper tools and you won't have issues.
Have been chipping away at replacing the HG for several days now... The last couple days was finally able to get to the EGR system... I took some pictures of my EGR valve and cooler. The last four pics show the cooler and valve. You literally can barely see light through the cooler, it is that clogged. Very likely contributed to this issue.
Be wary of Amazon, I ordered genuine Toyota cabin and engine air filters two years in a row, the second year the filter was noticeably lighter, cheaper feeling. I suspect a counterfeit imitation that has only half the filter material
Went from Ecopia Summer tires to all-weather and dropped 7mpg avg on a prius. Good tires, but interesting the mpg drop was so vast.
I bought new Yokohama Avid Ascend LX BW 185/65HR15's in May of 2021. My mileage at the time was 209,674. My mileage is now 241,241 and one of my tires is bald and needs replacing. And the others ares are bald but getting low while one is still pretty good.
I have a 2010 Prius that has been a daily driver and has 425000km on it. It ran perfect with only brakes and oil changes until 390000km when the head gasket went. Mechanic said the engine wasn't powerful enough to harm itself and after the replacement it's been running great.
