Lexus IS300h – kvar baterije
Iako legenda kaže da Toyota/Lexus hybrid baterije ne otkazuju ni nakon 700.000 km, ovu smo mjerili čak 14 puta da budemo sigurni — jer je već na 194.000 km od 32 ćelije potpuno otkazalo njih 26. Vlasnici često voze s uključenim OBD uređajem i brišu greške, što dodatno uništava sustav, pa je baterija najvjerojatnije bila neispravna i ranije.
Sad kad su sve ćelije zamijenjene, baterija je i dalje “originalna” po legendi — jer poklopac i vijci nisu mijenjani. Dakle, još 4–5 puta reparirati do 700.000 km, dok se ne potroši navoj poklopca i termiti ne pojedu kućište, tek tada će se eventualno “mijenjati cijela baterija”.
Tehnički gledano – tad bi izdrzala 700.000 km i Legenda bi bila potvrđena.
OEM; oko 2400-2600€
EVC: 1000-2200€
+ BONUS za 3000€ dodatno, negiramo da je ikad bila popravljana u ime legende.

Lexus IS300h – Battery Failure
Although the legend says Toyota/Lexus batteries never fail—even after 700,000 km—we tested this one 14 times just to be sure, because by 194,000 km, 26 out of 32 cells were completely dead. Owners often drive with an OBD tool plugged in and clear faults regularly, which further damages the system—so the battery was likely faulty even earlier.
Now that all the cells have been replaced, the battery is still considered “original” according to the legend—because the cover and bolts haven’t been changed. So, it can be repaired another 4–5 times until 700,000 km, until the cover thread wears out or termites eat through the housing. Only then will the entire battery technically be replaced.
From a technical standpoint – it would have “lasted” 700,000 km. Legend confirmed.
OEM price: ~€2,400-2,600
EVC price: €1,000–2,200
BONUS: For an extra €3,000, we’ll officially deny it was ever repaired—in the name of the legend.
