How much does it cost to replace the batteries? What price would you pay for a used hybrid knowing that you soon had to replace its batteries?

What cost? The batteries are warranteed for eight years or 100,000 miles. I doubt I will have it that long anyway; already having owned 54 cars in my lifetime. But in any event, I studied this matter and they simply are not failing. And if they are not failing, they would be dirt cheap in the scrap yards. I saw one on ebay and it sold for $455 with 4 miles on the odometer. And with costs coming down they are likely to become cheaper yet.
