What is a hybrid service?
Servicing a hybrid vehicle requires a slightly different approach to servicing traditional petrol and diesel-powered vehicles. This is due to the high-voltage batteries that work alongside the engine to power the vehicle. Hybrid vehicles also have more of a variety of parts than gasoline or diesel powered vehicles. This means that mechanics have to take extra care when examining the vehicle.
When should you get your hybrid vehicle serviced?
We recommend that you service your hybrid vehicle at least once a year. This will allow for the smooth operation of various components in your vehicle.
Many customers get their vehicle serviced at the same time as their WOF. This saves the hassle of bringing your car into the mechanics twice.
