Research Review: The Real Costs Of Hybrid Car Repair And Upkeep
Environmental friendliness aside, one of the main appeals of driving a hybrid vehicle is their reduced maintenance requirements. But how much do hybrid vehicles really save drivers?
To answer this question, Consumer Reports researchers synthesized data from their 2019 and 2020 spring reliability surveys, which included thousands of reports of maintenance and repair data.
At the end of their analysis, they found that hybrid car owners pay roughly half as much as internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle owners (Harto, 2020). Over the life of their vehicle, hybrid vehicle owners saved an average of $4600.
These findings echo the results of a 2018 study by The 2° Institute, which found that hybrid owners pay about 40-47% as much as ICE vehicle owners for maintenance and repairs over the life of their vehicle.
Both studies also suggested that hybrid vehicle ownership may be less expensive than electric vehicle ownership after the 160,000km mark since their mix of ICE and electric power puts less strain on the battery over time.
Of course, hybrid vehicle owners will still need to make room in the budget for regular maintenance. In fact, unlike EVs, hybrid vehicles still require much of the same maintenance as ICE vehicles. But there are plenty of ways to save money on hybrid vehicle upkeep, and Eccles Auto Service is standing by to help!
