2016- all trims have LED low- and highbeams.

The OP's car has halogens all around. There is a warranty enhancement program for 2010-2011 Priuses which replaces the headlight wiring harness with an updated version that should prevent premature bulb failure; you should check with a local dealer to see if it's been done (it probably hasn't).
