It's true that a hybrid needs less maintenance than a conventionally fuelled car, but to keep it running safely, smoothly and reliably it still needs servicing regularly — we'd recommend once a year or every 6,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Our hybrid-trained technicians have the expertise and experience to service your car to the highest standard. We offer different service levels to suit your needs, so get in touch with any questions and we'll happily talk you through the options at our Tonbridge workshop.
Why hybrids still need looking after
- The petrol engine runs in short bursts, so it rarely gets fully warm — oil changes matter more, not less
- Regenerative braking means the friction brakes are used lightly and can seize or corrode
- The high-voltage battery, its cooling and the inverter need checking by someone trained on them
- A full hybrid system health check with every service, with a report you can keep
