Toyota recommends having your 2018 Toyota Prius C’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Toyota Prius C. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
