How often should the brake pads be replaced in a Toyota Prius?

I'm considering buying a used Toyota Prius and I'm wondering how often I should expect to replace the brake pads. Is it more frequent than in a traditional gas-powered car?

It is recommended to replace the brake pads of a Toyota Prius every 50,000 to 70,000 miles. However, this can vary depending on your driving habits and conditions.

I have a Prius and I usually have to replace my brake pads every 60,000 miles. I would suggest looking at your owner's manual for the specific recommended interval for your model year.

I've heard that the regenerative braking system in Prius helps reduce wear on the brake pads. If you're primarily driving in city traffic with a lot of stop-and-go, you may need to replace them more frequently.
