Power steering is electric and as a result we don’t need to check the power steering oil level as there isn’t any. The gasoline engine only runs in reversing to power the batteries. Priuses can burn oil. Even though it is normal (for all cars), hybrids can develop a thirst for oil after a few hundred thousand kilometers.
