Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Repair - What Sets Regal Repair Apart

With the rise of EVs and hybrid vehicle use on our roads, which is predicted to rise to over 11 million by 2030 in the UK,— It is clear that the future of driving is shifting fast. 

EVs and hybrid vehicles offer unmatched benefits compared to traditional cars, including cleaner energy, lower running costs, and next-level technology.

However, every advantage comes with its challenges. And when it comes to hybrid/EV repair, it is a completely different approach than traditional repair. 

If you are a hybrid or EV owner, this is your chance to understand the unique requirements of hybrid and EV repair — and why Regal Repair is the trusted choice to keep your vehicle working at its best.

Why Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Repair is Different 

This will be a quick and efficient guide, straight to the point.

• High-voltage Systems: 

Hybrid and EV vehicles have high-voltage electrical systems that, if not properly handled, can result in a deadly explosion. 

Specialized expertise and tools are indispensable when it comes to repairing hybrid & EV vehicle (EV) vehicles.  

• The Battery - EV Lifeline: 

While traditional vehicles rely on combustible energy to run, hybrid & EVs heavily rely on large battery packs to run. If clumsily handled, especially by an inexperienced technician, it can cost you more to fix it and also reduce the battery's overall performance and lifespan.

• Specially Trained Technicians: There's an undeniable need for special care and expertise, different from traditional vehicles, to care for hybrid or EVs. 
• Certifications: As a hybrid or EV owner, you should not entrust your vehicle to any repair facility without certification that guarantees their expertise, such as I-CAR Gold Class,  Ford Accredited Credential Training (FACT), etc.

The Challenges EV/Hybrid Owners Face at Typical Repair Shops 

• Lack of Trained Technicians: 

Technicians who have not undergone specialized training for hybrid/EV repairs always fall behind in terms of performance. 

Risk of Improper Handling:

Improper handling can lead to safety and performance issues.

• Limited Availability of Parts:

EVs have limited available parts. Some have to be imported, especially if the repair shop is located in a rural area. 

• Higher Cost Due to Trial-and-Error Repairs:

Hybrid/EV owners end up spending more on repairs if the technicians and repair facility are incapable.
