Many Hybrid Cars have double systems; a gasoline motor and battery system. This means more potential things to go wrong and therefore potentially more work for automotive shops and service companies. Unfortunately with a shortage of mechanics in the United States there may not be enough of the high-tech technicians needed to service the demand.

Additionally, there maybe mandatory Manufacturer only repairs otherwise warranties can be voided. Of course even if non-manufactured licensed repair stations can fix these vehicles then the auto shop still must be able to perform the services and that means you will need specially trained personnel and technicians.

Currently of course the number of Hybrids on the road is nearly nil compared to the 17 million cars sold in America each year. But the oil change intervals for oil change shops and basic preventative maintenance items is the nearly the same as regular cars, which is a good thing. And the oil used is also the same for the most part for both Honda and Toyota Hybrids.

And at 82 miles to the gallon or so they claim, means their owners will have more money to pay your shop and probably not put off the required preventative maintenance like the industry average is fairly use too. Perhaps you will consider all this in 2006.
