This factory service and repair manual was written for the 2016 Toyota Prius V as Toyota built it, the 1.8L four-cylinder hybrid (2ZR-FXE) and the four trim levels sold that year, so the specifications and repair procedures you work to are the ones Toyota published for this car rather than figures carried over from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2016 Prius V. One recall is on federal record for this vehicle, NHTSA campaign 20V369000, and it concerns the hybrid propulsion system inverter. Toyota is recalling certain 2014-2017 Prius V vehicles not included in recall 18V-684; the campaign cites excessive voltage in the Intelligent Power Module. An unexpected hybrid power system shut down may increase the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 24 complaints with NHTSA for this model year, and Toyota has issued 150 technical service bulletins for the vehicle.
Whether you are chasing a hybrid system warning back to the inverter or following a scheduled maintenance interval, the procedures are the OEM ones for this 2016 Prius V and the specifications match the 1.8L hybrid drivetrain rather than a generic Prius.
