How long can I expect a hybrid car to last for?

I have a 2014 Toyota Auris Hybrid. When can I expect to start having expensive repairs such as a replacement battery?

Answered by Andrew Brady

With regular servicing, I wouldn't expect any major problems with your Auris for a number of years. They're extremely reliable cars and the battery should last for a while yet, if early Prius models are anything to go by.
