The median 2010 Prius in Canada sits at $8,098. Half of what's out there falls between $5,835 and $9,290, so that band is your reality check. Anything below the low end wants a hard look at the battery and service history. Anything above $9,290 needs to justify itself with low mileage or a spotless record.
These cars have miles on them. The typical 2010 on the market shows around 219,788 km, which is high but normal for a 15-year-old hybrid. When you're comparing two listings, mileage is the number that separates a fair ask from an inflated one.
What mileage does to the price
Every extra 10,000 km knocks about $252 off the price. So a Prius with 250,000 km should run roughly $750 under one showing 220,000, all else equal. Run that math on any listing before you talk numbers. If a higher-mileage car is priced like a lower-mileage one, the seller is either optimistic or hoping you won't check the odometer.
