Hybrid car warranty UK from Buy A Warranty covers the mechanical and electrical failures that hybrid owners in the UK actually pay for once the manufacturer term runs out. Quote online with your registration and mileage, choose your claim limit, hourly labour rate and voluntary excess, and cover can start straight away.
Cover is built around the parts that fail on hybrids rather than a generic component list. The areas hybrid owners ask us about most are set out below, and each is included subject to the plan level and claim limit you choose.
Diagnosis, parts and labour for hybrid transaxle and motor-generators are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.
Diagnosis, parts and labour for inverter and converter assembly are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.
Diagnosis, parts and labour for hybrid battery cooling fan and ducting are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.
Diagnosis, parts and labour for regenerative braking actuator are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.
Diagnosis, parts and labour for engine start-stop and DC-DC systems are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.
We arrange cover for Toyota Prius, Toyota Yaris Hybrid, Honda Jazz e:HEV, Lexus CT and Kia Niro HEV, along with most other hybrid variants registered in the UK up to 15 years old and 150,000 miles.
Petrol, diesel, hybrid and fully electric versions are all quotable, and Northern Ireland registrations are accepted alongside GB plates.
Ex-private-hire Priuses and Aurises now make up a large share of the UK used hybrid market, and their high mileages make inverter and brake actuator faults far more common than on a comparable petrol car.
Hybrid plans cover the petrol engine and the hybrid drive together, so you are not left choosing between the two halves of the car.
Every quote shows the monthly figure and the pay-in-full total before you commit, with no admin fee added at checkout and a 14-day cooling-off period after purchase.
Take the vehicle to any VAT-registered garage in the UK, including a marque specialist or franchised dealer. Ask them to send us the diagnosis and estimate, we authorise the repair against your claim limit and labour rate, and we settle with the garage directly wherever possible so you are not left funding the bill and waiting for a refund.
It is worth it when a single realistic repair would cost more than the plan. Ex-private-hire Priuses and Aurises now make up a large share of the UK used hybrid market, and their high mileages make inverter and brake actuator faults far more common than on a comparable petrol car.
Yes. Any VAT-registered garage in the UK can carry out the work, including hybrid specialists and franchised dealers, as long as the repair is authorised before work starts.
Yes, up to 150,000 miles and 15 years old at the point cover starts. Hybrid plans cover the petrol engine and the hybrid drive together, so you are not left choosing between the two halves of the car.
Cover can begin immediately after purchase, or on a future date if you are waiting for a manufacturer or dealer warranty to expire first.
