Hybrid Maintenance In Pacoima, CA

Maintaining a hybrid vehicle is not the same as maintaining a gas-powered car. To achieve great fuel efficiency, electric cars and hybrid vehicles rely on a slew of parts, hybrid systems and other automotive technology not found in conventional gasoline engine vehicles. These parts include hybrid or plug-in battery packs, electric motors, regenerative braking systems, brake pads, and more. The maintenance costs of maintaining an electric motor as well as a gas engine can vary, and it is important to have a team of experts on your side. Blumer Auto Center in Pacoima is your go-to place for hybrid maintenance. 

What is a hybrid battery?

As you may know, a hybrid car combines the functionality of a gas-powered motor and an electric hybrid battery. The battery is rechargeable and provides enough power to keep even a large vehicle running. The most popular hybrid vehicle on the market today is the Toyota Prius, but every major carmaker, including Acura, Audi, BMW, and Buick, offers hybrid vehicles in their lineups, including plug-in hybrids. 

Hybrid vehicles offer the best of owning an electric car and a car run on fuel. They offer a very impressive fuel economy, and this is because of the hybrid battery that powers the car. Electric engines become much more functional when an internal combustion engine is added to it; these two components combine to produce the best efficiency and reliability. 

A hybrid vehicle utilizes a high voltage, 12-volt lead-acid battery and gasoline like a traditional vehicle while also pulling energy from an electric battery. The vehicle can switch seamlessly between power sources so the driver isn't even aware of the transition. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the electric battery recharges. This makes hybrid vehicles 20-35% more fuel-efficient than regular cars.

A hybrid vehicle cannot run without a functioning battery. Most hybrid batteries run for around eight years.
