★ Top Answer
The 2012 Toyota Prius no longer has a serpentine belt as part of its design. Toyota started phasing out the serpentine belt from production between 2009 and 2010. Instead, the vehicle is built with a timing chain, which is designed to last for the entire lifespan of the car, typically between 150,000 to 175,000 miles. If the timing chain does require replacement and you opt to tackle the task yourself, the parts alone could cost you anywhere from $103 to $340.
