I've not seen on this or any similar forum any reports of significant engine failure. If anything, the engine should last longer than in conventional cars. Simply put, it doesn't have to work as hard or as often for a given distance driven.
The engine should last longer than a normal Toyota engine, which means your kids could end up driving it. Tom
