When I was shopping for a Hybrid Highlander 2016 in Montreal, the local dealer quoted me $6500 for the battery pack. Not sure how much many hours of labor is required.

I don't want to derail the thread, just want to say that the new Toyota Hybrid Battery Warranty is now 10 years or 240,000 km, whichever comes first. https://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/about/n ... c-vehiclesbooblehead wrote: ↑ toyota said their battery should be good for 8 yrs / 160,000km (prior to MY2020).

In term of inflation and what you get, sure. In term of price tag, no. I think it was like $5-$6K to replace them in 90s Prius in the 2000s as well.

Well, yes and no. Cost for a brand new battery for an older vehicle likely won’t go down much. However, as recyclers start to get into the game in volume you will probably be able to get a fully reconditioned battery pack for a lot less than new in the future.

Were you specifically shopping for a deal on one with a faulty traction battery? If so I am very surprised you were able to find one. My Toyota hybrid battery is fine after 15.5 years and 285k km.

No, we were looking at the 2014-2017 Range, We has signed contract for a 2016 hybrid with 158k km s. This issue was not the battery pack, it actual passed the DR Prius battery test, the issues were with the back idrive it had been services and the entire car had a strange vibration that not could explain. the Ford dealership that was selling it told it is was an exchange, a client traded it in for gas highlander they had as the person wanted to a higher tow capacity.Martin (deal addict) wrote: ↑ Were you specifically shopping for a deal on one with a faulty traction battery?

The price of the cells will probably go down, sure, but will the price of the car part of the battery pack? That's another story. Price of OEM/geniune battery pack replacement may even go up in price. Toyblowta after all is, like all other car makers, in the business of selling cars. It's not beyond these guys to price stuff like this so high that you'd rather just buy a new vehicle. This can even be said for new engines--prices there can be crazy high which is why most people looking for an entire engine would just buy a used one/one from a wrecked car. With batteries that don't work too well 'cause once they are used, they lose their life.
