The 2017 Toyota Prius Prime requires 0W-20 oil under all conditions. If 0W-20 oil is unavailable, it is acceptable to use 5W-20 once, but you must switch back to 0W-20 at the next oil change. The car's oil capacity is 4.4 quarts with a filter. It is recommended to change the oil every 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, to maintain a clean engine. An oil change at a mechanic typically costs between $30 and $40 for labor. However, performing an oil change yourself is simple and can be completed in just 5 to 15 minutes.
I suggest using synthetic 0w-20 motor oil for this car, although 5w-20 can also be used without any problems.
