The Prius+ uses the same 1.8 litre full hybrid system as the third-generation Prius, with a different battery layout so the car can carry three rows of seats.
High annual mileage and long hours of stop-start driving make regular battery and cooling checks especially worthwhile on this car.

Worth checking on a Toyota Prius+
- Hybrid battery health, module by module
- Battery cooling fan and intake, which clog with dust over time
- Inverter coolant and its pump
- Brakes: hybrids brake mostly by regeneration, so calipers can seize from little use
- The 12V auxiliary battery, a common cause of a car that will not go "READY"
All of these are part of our hybrid service, and the battery health check gives you a written result for every module.
