Hybrid cars are now becoming commonplace as New Zealanders look for cleaner, greener transportation. Orewa Car Services is qualified to diagnose and repair hybrid high voltage systems.

We are witnessing the beginning of another revolution in transport, just like when electronic fuel injection did away with the carburettor. Hybrid cars are now becoming commonplace as New Zealanders look for cleaner, greener transportation.

To safely work on the hybrid vehicle's 280-400-volt system, technicians should undergo extensive hybrid training. Not all technicians have received this training yet. Choose your service workshop carefully.

Up skilling is very important with Hybrid car systems because it is a new and potentially dangerous technology. This is why Orewa Car Services has up-skilled its technicians to work on the Hybrid high voltage systems.

Hybrid services provided by Orewa Car Services

  • Hybrid specific service maintenance - dealership level maintenance.
  • Electrical diagnosis and repair.
  • High Voltage Battery refurbishment.

The most expensive repair often associated with hybrids is replacing the battery, which can cost between $8,000 - $14,000.

Never work on the electrical system yourself.

Unless you are a hybrid-certified mechanic, leave the electrical and battery repairs to the professionals who are trained to work with those deadly, high-voltage components.
