Some answers, but others might have more to add:
1) What is the typical battery-pack life?
Don't know about the US, but in the EU we get 10 yo. warrenty on the Hybrid drivetrain
2) Is battery life driven more by usage (miles), temperature (hot/cold), or what?
It is NiMH batteries, which are very durable, så don't worry about them. Also system takes great care of them
5) How accurate are the dash gauge MPG readings?
In my yartis within 5%
6) How accurate are the dash gauge BATTERY readings (%-left, range, etc.)? You don't need that information
7) How safe is their Smart Key System: "...may interfere with some pacemakers or cardiac defibrillators"? (I have one)
In my opinion the smart key system is useless, and eats a lot of power, fo stay away
8) How well do the 'heated front seats work? What effect on battery life? Belive they run on the 12 V batryry, and they heat well, almost too much. Dosent use them.
