A used Toyota Prius blower motor carries a median asking price of $80, which is 5% higher than the Mazda 3 at $76. Supply also plays a role: Toyota Prius has 998 priced listings versus 460 for Mazda 3, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Grade A (excellent condition) parts make up 84% of Mazda 3 listings compared to 69% for the Toyota Prius, so buyers looking for top-condition units will find more options on the Mazda 3 side.
The Toyota Prius average ($133) runs 66% above its median ($80), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Only 59% of Toyota Prius blower motor listings include a posted price (998 of 1,696 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
The Toyota Prius blower motor is interchangeable across 17 model years versus just 10 for the Mazda 3 — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
