Parts for your 2010 Toyota Prius-Driveshafts

2010 Toyota Prius driveshafts: what they do and how to look after them

Yes, the 2010 Toyota Prius does use driveshafts. Technical sources such as Toyota’s Repair Manual and New Car Features (ZVW30 platform), plus the Toyota Electronic Parts Catalogue, show the car is front-wheel drive with two front driveshaft (CV axle) assemblies—left and right—running from the hybrid transaxle to the front wheels. There’s no long tailshaft/propeller shaft on this model because it’s not rear-wheel drive or AWD
