Do you just pull numbers out of your butt to make your point of view? The whole drivetrain including the battery is warrantied for 100,000 miles or 8 years. The cost of a Brand New Battery is less than $3000 installed. The XA is not near the car a prius is. I should know, I had a XB. A 100,000 mile prius, with our without a new battery, holds its value considerably better than a 100,000 mile XA. Less that 1% of Prius batteries have failed before 180,000 miles. All facts
