Toyota Prius Shock Absorber Replacement Malaysia
ZVW30 and ZVW50 shocks wear gradually. Inspect at 80,000 km. Low ride height helps efficiency but absorbers bear the brunt of Malaysian potholes.
Prius ZVW30 uses MacPherson front / torsion beam rear. ZVW50 uses MacPherson front / double wishbone rear (much more refined). Shock absorber lifespan: 80,000–100,000 km in Malaysian conditions.
Shock Absorber Options
- OEM Toyota shocks: RM 300–450 each — maintain the fuel-efficiency-tuned suspension character
- KYB Excel-G: RM 250–380 each — near-OEM spec, popular budget option
