Do hybrid cars need oil changes?

Yes, hybrid cars still need oil changes because they have a gasoline engine that requires lubrication just like a conventional car. The difference is that hybrids often run on electric power at low speeds, so the gas engine runs less and oil can sometimes last longer between changes. However, that intermittent engine operation can also cause moisture buildup in the oil, so following the manufacturer's recommended interval is important. Most hybrids use low-viscosity full synthetic oil such as 0W-20 to maximize efficiency. In Miami's heat, keeping your hybrid's oil fresh protects the engine during the times it does run. Motoro Cars' ASE-certified technicians are experienced with hybrid vehicles and use the correct synthetic oil.
