For a 15+ year old ICE, I was pouring in maybe $500-1500 for innocuous stuff per year. A single replacement of $5-10K that you can basically see coming from a long ways off (and can be heavily affected by your habits) doesn't seem too bad.
I'd expect at least 15. But really, with a PHEV you still have a normal hybrid without the plugin aspect so it's not like it's dead on the road.
