2015 Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid Hatchback

Description

So, I’ve got this 2015 Toyota Prius plug-in hybrid I bought back when the hybrids were still a bit of a novelty — it’s been around for a while now, but still runs smooth and doesn’t eat through the fuel tank like some other cars.

It’s a 1.8L petrol-electric hybrid with a CVT, and it’s got a nice 134bhp — not flashy, but plenty for everyday driving. I’ve had it for over 50,000 miles now, and it’s been mostly gentle use — city driving, some country roads, not much stress on it. The battery’s been fine, and the EV mode works well, especially when I’m in traffic or just getting around the local area.

It’s a five-door hatchback with silver alloy wheels — 15-inch, 10-spoke design — and it looks clean and well-maintained. The interior is a bit more modern than what you’d expect for its age, with leather seats (half-leather), a JBL sound system, sat-nav, cruise control, and that handy eco-mode. The parking sensors and reverse camera are a real plus when I’m parking in tight spots.

I’ve kept it well looked after — all the services have been done, including the full 12-month MOT, and I’ve got the original V5 and a full service history. The car’s had four previous owners, but it’s been well cared for through all of them. Two keys, no issues with the security system.

I’ve had it through a proper inspection — brakes, suspension, steering, everything checked. No leaks, no rattles, the engine runs quiet, and the hybrid system works smoothly. The dashboard shows you the charge level, EV range, and even has a head-up display.

I’m selling it because I’ve moved to Wick, Highland, and I’m just not going to carry on with a car that’s been in the same place for years. I’ve been driving it for a few years now and it’s been reliable — no major repairs, just regular maintenance.

It’s worth about £8,995.50, but I’m not going to advertise that. The real story is that it’s a solid, practical car with a bit of soul — great for commuting, city life, or even occasional weekend trips.

If you’re thinking about a low-emission, fuel-efficient car that doesn’t need a lot of attention, this might be the one.

If you’re interested, I can chat or even do a quick video walk-through. I’m based in Wick, Highland, so if you’re local, I can meet up or arrange a viewing.

No pressure, just sharing something I’ve used and liked for years. Let me know if you’re curious — I’d be happy to talk through it.
