SPECIALIST EV & HYBRID CARE
Why Does an EV or Hybrid Need Servicing?
Electric and hybrid vehicles have different maintenance requirements from conventional petrol vehicles. While a battery-electric vehicle doesn’t need traditional engine-oil servicing, it still contains brakes, tyres, suspension, cooling systems, electronic controls and high-voltage components that require appropriate inspection and maintenance.
EV & Hybrid Logbook Servicing
Scheduled servicing helps keep your vehicle maintained according to its manufacturer service requirements.
- Scheduled maintenance
- Vehicle-system inspections
- Diagnostic checks where appropriate
- Service documentation
Battery Diagnostics
The battery is one of the most important components in an EV. Appropriate diagnostic testing can help investigate battery-system faults and assess available battery information.
- Battery-system diagnostics
- Battery-management-system checks
- Fault investigation
- State-of-health information where supported
High-Voltage System Inspection
EVs and hybrids contain high-voltage electrical systems requiring appropriate safety procedures, equipment and training.
- High-voltage system inspection
- Appropriate isolation procedures
- Electrical-system diagnostics

Regenerative Braking & Brake Care
Regenerative braking changes how frequently conventional friction brakes are used. That makes regular brake inspection particularly important for EV and hybrid owners.
- Brake inspection
- Corrosion checks
- Brake component maintenance
- Regenerative-braking system diagnostics where appropriate
Thermal Management
EV and hybrid vehicles use cooling and thermal-management systems to control temperatures in critical components.
- Cooling-system inspection
- Thermal-management checks
- Cooling-system maintenance where required
- Fault diagnosis
EV Tyres, Suspension & Alignment
EV weight, instant torque and tyre characteristics can place different demands on tyres and suspension components.
- EV tyre supply and fitting
- Wheel alignment
- Suspension inspection
- Wear and handling checks
