I imagine you might be right about that, but the batteries on the original Prius are still going after 10 years, so it might be a null point. I guess we will know in a few more years how they are all doing! That might be Chris, I don’t know.

Who wants to buy the older hybrid technology when the newer is more efficient. I am not sure the extent to which the technology has now "plateau'd", but is this not a factor that should be taken into consideration when factoring in the resale value? I'm not sure the 49% is actually the same for hybrid versus regular cars. If i was buying a hybrid used, I would worry about needing to replace batteries and such. Just a though...
