    Hi all..
    I heard from one of my friends that you change your old 2010 prius hybrid battery with a new ford fusion 2013 hybrid battery...!!
    I need to make sure that this rume is correct or not..
    Maybe it is a good idea or not..because ford batteries is more cheaper that prius...

    I looked up the voltage and they are not the same: Prius 202 V while Fusion 280 V.

    Many cars use the same modules as the Prius. So it probably is the same.
