Prius, Corolla and hybrid engine care
A Toyota hybrid still has a petrol engine, so engine oil and filter requirements do not disappear. The traction battery is separate from the auxiliary battery. Hybrid-system warnings call for diagnosis of the relevant system rather than an automatic battery replacement. A Corolla or RAV4 name alone also does not identify the generation or powertrain.
