Perth Hybrid Transmissions

A hybrid transmission is a type of automatic transmission that uses two or more gears to achieve better fuel economy than a traditional automatic transmission.

A hybrid transmission uses a small gasoline engine and an electric motor to power the car. The gasoline engine powers the car when it is travelling at high speeds, and the electric motor powers the car when it is travelling at low speeds or when the gasoline engine is not needed.

Car transmissions should be serviced every 30,000 miles or every two years. Our Hybrid transmission services include:

• Inspection of the hybrid transmission
• Diagnosis of any issues with the hybrid transmission
• Cleaning of the hybrid transmission system
• Hybrid transmission is refilled with high-quality transmission fluid

An electric car runs entirely off electricity, removing the need for petrol.

However, hybrid vehicles contain both an electric motor and a fuel-powered engine. There are two types of hybrids: plug-ins (PHEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV)

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles

Plug-ins can run off electricity or fuel. Typically they will run off the electric motor before flipping over to the fuel-powered engine.

What great about the PHEVs is if you don’t drive too much during the day, and you have a charging point you can use to charge your car at night, you will rarely need to fill your car with petrol.

Hybrid electric vehicles

HEVs will run off the electricity stored in your engine’s battery. Once the battery is depleted, the car will start running on the fuel-powered engine.

But what makes the HEV great is while it is running on fuel, it will automatically charge the battery. This means you only have to fill the car with petrol, and you don’t need to worry about installing a charging point in your garage.
