Maintenance on a Prius (almost none):

  1. Every 5K miles - change the oil and filter, rotate tires, check brake pads<
  2. Every 15K miles, inspect more stuff<
  3. Every 25K miles - replace engine and cabin air filters - sooner if you drive in dirty air. You can do these yourself VERY easily.<
  4. At 100K miles - change engine and inverter coolant<
  5. At 120K miles - change spark plugs<
I would add:
"At 60K miles - drain and replace transaxle oil." (NHW20 models)
