What is the battery's state of health, and is the hybrid/EV battery still under its original warranty?

Battery capacity fades with age and use, and replacement is the single biggest cost on a hybrid or EV. Most carry a separate, longer battery warranty.

Which scheduled services have been done, and what's due next?

Around 80,182 miles many cars need brakes, tires or a major service. Knowing what's due changes the real price.

What is the out-the-door price in writing, including the doc fee, taxes, title and any add-ons?

The advertised price is rarely what you pay. An itemized out-the-door quote exposes doc fees and pre-installed add-ons before you negotiate.

What reconditioning was done before listing, and is there a recent inspection or Carfax report?

Dealers inspect and repair trade-ins to different standards. Ask what was replaced, what was left alone and whether the state inspection is current.
