Does mileage affect hybrid battery life?
The amount of miles you put on your battery determines battery life just as much as age. For example, a 2005 Prius with 150,000 miles will have a better battery in theory than a 2011 Prius with 150,000 miles. This means the 2011 Prius has endured more intense cycling over a shorter period.
