Diagnostic assessments, including metrics like state of health, remaining useful life, and end-of-life estimation, play a pivotal role in understanding battery systems. Beyond simply providing insights into battery condition, these diagnostics also serve to minimise downtime, thereby lowering maintenance expenses and mitigating potential safety risks.
Equipped with advanced diagnostic tools and technology, we can accurately assess the overall condition of your hybrid battery and identify any potential issues that may be impacting its performance. Our skilled technicians are trained to interpret diagnostic data effectively, enabling them to diagnose problems accurately and recommend appropriate solutions.
OEM, which stands for “original equipment manufacturer,” are batteries produced by manufacturers in compliance with the specifications outlined by the designer. Essentially, OEM batteries are manufactured under the direct authorization and guidance of the original factory, adhering strictly to specific requirements.
Unlike aftermarket or generic batteries, OEM batteries undergo rigorous testing and validation processes to ensure they meet the high standards of quality and performance. By choosing OEM batteries, you can have confidence in the reliability and durability of your vehicle’s power source, knowing it’s backed by the manufacturer’s reputation and warranty.
We are committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility. As part of our dedication to reducing waste and conserving resources, we offer a comprehensive battery recycling programme for hybrid vehicles.
When you bring your old battery to us, you can be rest assured that it will be recycled in accordance with stringent environmental standards. We work with certified recycling partners who adhere to strict regulations and practices, ensuring that batteries are recycled responsibly and ethically
Sometimes your hybrid battery may require more than just a simple replacement. Common battery issues may include cell degradation, voltage imbalances, thermal management system failures, and more. Our team of skilled technicians is equipped to handle a wide range of battery repairs, from minor fixes to major overhauls. With transparent communication and a commitment to excellence, we ensure that your hybrid battery is restored to peak performance, allowing you to get back on the road with confidence.
We help automotive experts, vehicle manufacturers and workshops to take advantage of the cutting edge of hybrid battery machine technology. For our hybrid battery machine enhancement training, we specialise in providing and delivering in-depth training sessions, giving your people the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in the changing automotive environment.

A hybrid car battery degrades over time, but there are four clear signs that it is failing and needs servicing or replacing:
It is recommended that you act quickly as soon as you notice any of the above signs. A faulty or degraded car battery can compromise your vehicle’s efficiency and performance.
A hybrid car battery is a type of car battery that powers hybrid vehicles, which use both a petrol (or diesel) engine and an electric motor. It is a high-voltage, rechargeable energy storage system that powers a hybrid electric vehicle’s motor and charging system. A hybrid car battery works together with a conventional internal combustion engine to reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency.
| Feature | Hybrid Car Battery | Conventional Car Battery |
| Function | Powers the electric motor and the engine. | Starts the car engine and powers the electronic systems. |
| Voltage | 100-300 volts
|
12 volts |
| Type | Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) or Lithium-ion (Li-ion) | Lead-acid |
| Recharging | Self-charges via regenerative braking. No need to plug the car into an exterior power source. | Charged with an alternator. |
Similar to conventional batteries, hybrid car batteries work according to electrochemical principles. The hybrid car batteries store chemical energy within them, which is converted into and released as electrical energy.
However, the battery in hybrid cars functions as a backup energy source. Even when the car is running on the internal combustion engine, the hybrid battery’s energy optimises fuel efficiency. The combustion engine and the electric motor operate together. Each system functions to power the vehicle’s operation by balancing the energy sources for the car’s performance.
Replacing a hybrid car battery can vary, based on the make and model of the vehicle. A hybrid car battery in Singapore costs between SGD 2,000 and SGD 10,000 in general. This price range takes into account different types of batteries, and whether you choose to buy an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) battery or a refurbished one.
Hybrid battery warranties vary depending on the vehicle manufacturer, model and type of battery. Coverage may also differ between a battery supplied with a new vehicle and a replacement battery. Depending on the warranty terms, coverage may apply to certain battery defects or performance-related issues for a specified period.
Before replacing a hybrid battery, vehicle owners should check whether their existing battery is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. If a replacement is required, it is also important to understand the warranty period, coverage and conditions provided with the replacement battery. Hybrid Shop can assess your hybrid battery condition and recommend a suitable repair or replacement solution based on your vehicle’s needs.
Our hybrid battery replacement process is carried out by our team of specialised technicians who will diagnose and assess your hybrid car battery’s condition.
Diagnosing the issue with your hybrid car battery is important for understanding its health and performance. Key metrics, such as the battery’s state of health (SOH), remaining useful life, and end-of-life estimation, are measured to provide valuable insights into the battery’s condition. These assessments minimise downtime, lower maintenance costs, and prevent potential safety issues. We employ advanced tools and trained technicians to interpret the diagnostic data, which lets us pinpoint any problems and recommend the most effective solutions for your hybrid car battery.
Hybrid Shop Pte Ltd specialises in hybrid car battery servicing and replacement, as well as the full suite of repair and maintenance services for hybrid or electric cars. Contact us here if you have any questions or concerns related to your hybrid or electric car.
The average lifespan of hybrid car batteries depends on factors such as usage and the type of battery’s energy capacity. For example, a Li-ion battery does not possess the same lifespan as a NiMH battery. If properly used and regularly serviced, a lithium-ion battery may last between 100,000 miles and 150,000 miles. This is estimated to be 10-12 years or longer, whereas the NiMH battery has a slightly shorter lifespan of up to 8-10 years.
Depending on the age and model of your car, the answer is no. If you can still drive the car, it is not recommended. In newer hybrid car models, the vital functions, such as the transmission and starting up, are powered by the hybrid system, which in turn is powered by a hybrid battery. If the battery is faulty or not working, the car will not start. Older hybrid cars can still be driven without the battery, but their performance will be very slow. Also, the internal combustion engine will be under strain and at risk of damage.
No, for safety reasons, the replacement process should be carried out by only trained technicians at authorised dealers or specialised third-party hybrid car workshops.
Hybrid Shop Singapore is founded and led by Mr. Sky Tiek, who is a veteran in the automotive repair industry with more than 35 years of experience, ranging from race car modification to all other repair and maintenance for all car makes and models.
