I confirmed it through another source at a Calgary dealership (I know someone in the bis up there), so it was a known problem with the platform itself. Those that don't ask the questions will be upset down the line. Buyer beware.

I have the Civic hybrid and the battery comes with a 8 year warranty. Not sure about the Toyotas but Civic uses the same type of battery the Insight uses. No major problems since they started selling them in 1999. Thats 7 years now.
I'm sure the toyota battery lasts more than 24 months.
One thing is don't buy a Civic hybrid if you are looking for trunk space! there isn't much. hehe. Also the rims on this car is probably the ugliest looking in the world. but i guess it's light and aerodynamic.
Still it gets me 800km's on 35 litres of fuel in the city. and over 1000kms on the highway.
