We are looking to sell our 2010 Toyota Prius IV that we purchased new from Anderson Toyota in Lake Havasu City in September 2010.  It was originally my wife's car, and she always wanted a red car with tan interior, so we specifically went to that dealership to pick it up with these options.  As you can see from the window sticker, it's pretty much as loaded as you can get a IV, with the Solar Roof package, including the Remote AC system, Voice-Activated touch-screen DVD Navigation, JBL Premium audio with XMNavTraffic and Bluetooth integration as well as iPhone/iPod/iPad/USB integration, Toyota Safety Connect, the Cargo Organizer (underneath), Cargo Net, Read Bumper Applique (says Prius in light letters), Door Edge Guard and carpeted front/rear/cargo floor mats.  There are currently about 35,335 miles on the odometer, and I drive it about 20 miles RT each day, so the number will slowly increase.  It is still under the new car 3 year/36,000 mile warranty.

 

My wife drove the car for just shy of 2 years, but now she's in a Sienna and I've taken the Prius.  I used to drive a Cadillac CTS-V (which I also sold on eBay) and have had a lot of fun with this car.  It's like a game to get the highest gas mileage I can.  My best full tank so far is 59.2 MPG!  We've cleaned the car really well (since it used to have kids travelling in it) but now it's just myself 98% of the time.  You'll see that the condition is very good, there are no serious stains on the interior, no tears or rough wear.  I only drive about 6-7,000 miles a year now, so I'm not getting the maximum benefit out of the Prius that we used to, or that somebody who drives more would be able to.  That's basically why I'm selling it.  It has given us no problems, all service has been performed at Larry Miller Toyota and we recently had the 30,000 service done.  Both front seat covers have been replaced because the plastic brackets which help hold both of them on were broken somehow.  The dealership says it could use some new tires shortly, but everything else is in great condition.  We just had it serviced 3 weeks ago, and the seat covers replaced a week back.  I wanted to have everything done before I tried to sell it, save for the tires which I will do if it doesn't sell and we end up keeping it.

 

I think the pictures speak for themselves.  The car is clean and we've had no issues with it.  It's a great car, with a lot of great features.  The Solar Roof really helps keep the car at a decent-enough temperature in the summer (or really year-round here in Phoenix).  The sound system is great and the Apple device connectivity is super helpful.  Surprisingly there is a lot of storage space in the trunk, especially if you fold the rear seats down.  I've fit way more back there than I could have in my old CTS-V.  There is a small ding on the driver's door from a neighboring car door, and the door edge also has a small chip from when we opened it into the Sienna door once (oops).  There seems to be some light automatic carwash abrasion near the gas cap that I think happened last week.  The passenger-side of the lower front fascia has scratches from pulling too close to a curb in a parking space.  The wheel covers are scratched (I like the look without them, but wanted to preserve them), one of which has a small crack from rubbing a curb on a slow turn.  There's also a thumb-width crack on the passenger side of the front windshield when somebody pulled in front of us at an onramp and went over gravel.  There's some light chips on the front bumper from that too, but nothing that I would consider outstanding.  There's also a black mascara mark on the headliner in the rear from my sister-in-law not being careful enough when applying.  I have a clean Carfax report that I can provide the new owner with that I obtained earlier this year.

 

I've tried to be as upfront and honest with describing the vehicle as I can, but I may have missed something.  I am not looking for a trade, and have priced the car very fairly for the condition it's in, with the mileage and at least some factory warranty remaining.  Again, I'm not in any urgency to sell, so I will not be compelled to accept low offers.  We live in Phoenix, and welcome any inspections within reason at your expense.  If you need help shipping, again, I can drive it to any facility that is local to the Valley.  $1,000 non-refundable deposit due via PayPal within 24 hours, remaining balance to be paid within 7 days of auction end via cash (I witness you withdraw from the bank and have the teller hand the cash to me - which is how we transacted the sale for my CTS-V) or direct transfer into my bank account prior to you obtaining the vehicle.  The title is currently with Toyota, so the remaining balance will need to be paid off and the title can then be sent to you.  Any other arrangements must be worked out prior to auction end.  All deals must be made through eBay, for both of our protection.  I don't mind paying the eBay fees to ensure we both have a smooth transaction.  If you'd like to use an online escrow service, we can with you covering all fees and agreeing to no refund/no exchange/no return.  All sales will be final.  I do reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

100% feedback, and I've sold a car here before, so you can bid with confidence.  If you have any questions or need to see other pictures, please feel free to ask away.

New Toyota semiconductors could increase hybrid fuel efficiency by 10%

Wed, 21 May 2014

Toyota may have an ace up its sleeve in the fuel economy wars, as it's developed a new type of semiconductor that will allegedly help the company's hybrids net a ten-percent improvement in fuel economy.
The tech is still in development, although Toyota is already reporting five-percent gains during testing, six years before it plans to implement the new semiconductor in production vehicles, meaning the ten-percent improvement doesn't seem like an untenable goal. That is, until you hear from Kimimori Hamada, the project general manager of Toyota's electronics division.
"We are aiming for great improvement in fuel economy and miniaturization," Hamada told Automotive News. "This is a very challenging target."

Is 120 miles just about perfect for EV range?

Tue, Apr 15 2014

When it comes to battery-electric vehicles, our friend Brad Berman over at Plug In Cars says 40 miles makes all the difference in the world. That's the approximate difference in single-charge range between the battery-electric version of the Toyota RAV4 and the Nissan Leaf. It's also the difference between the appearance or disappearance of range anxiety. The 50-percent battery increase has zapped any lingering range anxiety, Berman writes. The RAV4 EV possesses a 40-kilowatt-hour pack, compared to the 24-kWh pack in the Leaf. After factoring in differences in size, weight and other issues, that means the compact SUV gets about 120 miles on a single charge in realistic driving conditions, compared to about 80 miles in the Leaf. "The 50 percent increase in battery size from Leaf to RAV has zapped any lingering range anxiety," Berman writes. His observations further feed the notion that drivers need substantial backup juice in order to feel comfortable driving EVs. Late last year, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), along with the Consumers Union estimated that about 42 percent of US households could drive plug-in vehicles with "little or no change" in their driving habits, and that almost 70 percent of US commuters drive fewer than 60 miles per weekday. That would imply that a substantial swath of the country should be comfortable using a car like the Leaf as their daily driver - with first-quarter Leaf sales jumping 46 percent from a year before, more Americans certainly are. Still, the implication here is that EV sales will continue to be on the margins until an automaker steps up battery capabilities to 120 or so miles while keeping the price in the $30,000 range. Think that's a reasonable goal to shoot for?

2017 Toyota 86 brings new name and fresh face to New York

Wed, Mar 23 2016

The Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ seem unable to get away from their negative reputation online. The Mazda MX-5 Miata has no problem gaining fans that want an affordable sports car. However, the Toyobaru twins, which also offer attainable performance, can't seem to find a similar footing. The 2017 Toyota 86 has a new name, a fresh face, and a little more power. Even with the latest upgrades, the 2.0-liter boxer four-cylinder's 205 horsepower and 156 pound-feet of torque doesn't make it a powerhouse by modern standards. However, a naturally aspirated engine with over 100 horsepower per liter is still rather impressive in this price range. Toyota doesn't have details yet, but the company claims that new ratios for the six-speed manual transmission also offer increase the coupe's performance. Updated shock tuning and spring rates should sharpen the handling a little, too. View 12 Photos The 2017 86's aesthetics are very similar to the outgoing FR-S, but Toyota uses this opportunity to keep things modern. The coupe now has LED headlights and taillights. The new central intake that stretches along the front also looks more aggressive. If you're still not happy with the 86 or BRZ, which also has a facelift on the way, the good news is that a replacement is coming eventually. Fuji Heavy Industries P\president Yasuyuki Yoshinaga has confirmed twice that Subaru and Toyota have a deal to create a second generation model. They haven't set an introduction date, though.
