Why It Matters

Hybrids Deserve a Hybrid Specialist

Hybrids and EVs are everywhere in Tauranga now — and they're not just a normal car with a battery bolted on. The high-voltage traction battery, inverter and regenerative braking all need someone who actually understands them, not a generic scan and a guess. Get it wrong and the most expensive part of the car is the one at risk.

Jens holds Hybrid Elite certification on top of his Master Technician qualification, so he services and diagnoses hybrids and EVs properly — including the high-voltage system — and still looks after the everyday servicing the petrol side needs. All of it at your home or workplace.

Common Questions

Hybrid & EV FAQs

Yes. Jens is Hybrid Elite certified and services hybrids and EVs across Tauranga — Toyota Aqua, Prius and Corolla hybrids, Honda, Nissan e-Power, and full electric vehicles. He comes to your home or workplace with the right equipment, including for high-voltage system work.

It's a test of the high-voltage traction battery's condition — measuring the state of health across the battery's cells or modules to show how much capacity is left and whether any cells are failing. The traction battery is the most expensive part of a hybrid, so knowing its health is valuable before a repair, a sale, or a purchase.

Yes. Hybrids still need engine oil and filter changes, brake servicing, coolant (including inverter coolant on many models), and the usual safety checks. They're often gentler on brakes thanks to regenerative braking, but the petrol engine and conventional systems still need routine maintenance.

Yes. Jens runs hybrid-specific diagnostics to read fault codes from the hybrid control system, not just the generic engine codes. That pinpoints whether it's the battery, inverter, cooling, or a conventional fault before any parts are replaced.
