It never has to work too hard because whenever high power outputs are required the elecric motors are there to help. Also the wear associated with cold starts is diminished by a thermos which stores hot coolant between uses. If all the electronics etc turn out to be long lasting the Prius may well be one of the longest lasting cars ever made. Looking for the perfect gift?
