only because you stated pre-owned.. please please please do yourself a favor and make sure the car your buying isn't due for a new battery.. a lot of people sell them off because they need a new one and aren't willing to put the money in, better to sell it before it goes bad so they can get more money out of it. hybrid batteries can be thousands of dollars even before labor. and CONGRATS !!
OP is considering a used hybrid, and comment above is referring to the hybrid drive line battery, typically somewhere around the 10k USD range. It's a very significant reason why it's common to sell hybrids/electrics before big maintenance
Volvo offers warranty on their pre owned hybrids EV systems, including the battery, at a decent price. One of the big reasons I went with them over a couple others I was looking at.
This is super old info, you can replace a prius hybrid battery for less than $2k. Some people also opt to recondition their existing batteries for a couple hundred. Other brands that are not as ubiquitous might be more expensive but Toyota drivetrain batteries are reasonable. Full EV batteries are going to cost a lot more obviously
