Maybe you’ve been researching the different types of hybrid cars or looking through our hybrid inventory, and now you’ve got questions about hybrid car maintenance. Do hybrid cars need more maintenance? Are hybrid cars expensive to repair? The truth is that hybrid cars aren’t any more difficult to maintain than a gas-powered model, and many drivers even find that their maintenance costs go down after making the switch! Let’s dive into some of the most commonly asked questions about hybrid car maintenance, so you can shop with total peace of mind.
Do hybrid cars need more maintenance than gas-powered vehicles? The answer is no. The only extra component found on a hybrid car is the hybrid battery. This battery requires virtually no maintenance, and it is covered under a generous warranty. By law, all hybrid batteries must be covered for at least 8 years or 100,000 miles. That means many drivers will trade in their vehicles well before they run into any battery issues!
Are hybrid cars more expensive to repair than gas-powered vehicles? Once again, the answer is no. If you’re used to regular oil changes and tire rotations, nothing will change when you switch to a hybrid. You’ll go through the same maintenance routine with tasks like tune-ups, brake checks, and tire care. However, some hybrid owners find that their maintenance bills actually decrease. Why?
