Why Choose a Specialist for Your EV or Hybrid?
Choosing a general mechanic for your advanced vehicle is a risk you don't need to take. The complex systems in EVs and hybrids demand specialist knowledge and equipment. Entrusting your vehicle to Alpha MOT provides critical advantages that protect your safety, your investment, and your peace of mind.
Safety is Paramount
EVs and hybrids operate on high-voltage systems. Our certified technicians follow strict safety protocols to de-energise and work on your vehicle safely, protecting you, our team, and your car's delicate electronics.
Protect Your Battery, Maximise Your Range
The battery is the most expensive component. Our specialist servicing includes in-depth health diagnostics and software checks to maximise its lifespan, efficiency, and your car's real-world driving range.
Lower Your Long-Term Costs
While an EV service is already cheaper, specialist care prevents expensive future failures. We identify and rectify minor issues before they escalate into major, costly repairs, saving you money.
Preserve Your Manufacturer Warranty
You are not required to use a main dealer. We use manufacturer-approved parts and adhere strictly to official service schedules, ensuring your vehicle's warranty remains fully intact under UK law.

Your Hybrid & EV Servicing Questions Answered
For most all-electric vehicles (EVs), a service is recommended every 12 months or 12,000 miles. For hybrids, which also have a traditional engine, we recommend following the manufacturer's schedule, which is typically an annual service or every 10,000-12,000 miles.
Yes, generally. A full EV service is often around 29% cheaper than its petrol equivalent because there are fewer moving parts, no oil or filters to change, and no exhaust system. This translates into lower labour and parts costs for you.
A battery health check is a vital part of our specialist service. We use advanced diagnostic tools to analyse your high-voltage battery's condition, including its state of charge, cell balance, and temperature regulation. This helps us identify any potential degradation early, ensuring you get the maximum range and lifespan from your battery.
