They were talking about the Prius, a gas powered Civic can probably go 400K+ miles, especially the early 90s ones. But Hybrids are a different story, it's not a perfected technology yet and the cost to make these cars are astronomical. What you pay at the dealer is already discounted combined with government incentives.
