EV Myths – Explained Honestly
Electric & Hybrid Vehicles We Work On
Electric and hybrid vehicles differ significantly between manufacturers.
Each brand uses its own battery design, software logic, cooling systems, and safety procedures.
At P & P Auto, we work with a wide range of electric and hybrid vehicles and understand that there is no one-size-fits-all approach.
Tesla models
Tesla vehicles are designed around a floor-mounted battery pack, advanced software, and high-voltage systems that require correct lifting points, safety procedures, and specialist diagnostics — even for routine work.
At P & P Auto, we regularly work on Tesla models for:
- EV diagnostics and fault finding
- tyre changes using correct Tesla lifting procedures
- battery health checks and system inspections
- high-voltage safety checks
- general EV servicing and maintenance
Because Tesla relies heavily on software and battery management systems, accurate diagnostics and EV-specific knowledge are essential — and that’s exactly how we approach every Tesla that enters our workshop.
Nissan Leaf
One of the most popular electric cars in the UK, with unique battery management and cooling characteristics that require correct diagnostics and battery health assessment.
Toyota Prius
A proven hybrid platform where correct interaction between the petrol engine and electric system is key to efficiency and reliability.
Lexus Hybrid & Electric Models
Advanced hybrid systems focused on smooth operation, energy recovery, and long-term durability.
Mercedes-Benz Electric & Hybrid Vehicles
Premium EV and hybrid platforms with complex electronics, safety systems, and software-controlled energy management.
Audi e-tron Models
High-performance electric vehicles requiring precise diagnostics, thermal management checks, and high-voltage safety procedures.
KIA
Electric & Hybrid Vehicles (e.g. EV6, Niro EV / Hybrid, Sportage Hybrid)
Brand-Specific EV Knowledge Matters
Electric vehicles from different manufacturers:
That’s why we use advanced EV diagnostic tools and follow proper high-voltage safety processes, rather than generic fault-finding.

Clear Answers
How Do Electric Vehicles Work?
Many drivers are curious about electric vehicles but feel unsure how they actually work.
At P & P Auto, we believe understanding your car builds confidence — and better decisions.
So here’s a simple explanation 👇
How an EV Works – In Simple Terms
An electric vehicle replaces the traditional engine with:
- a battery (instead of a fuel tank)
- an electric motor (instead of an engine + gearbox)
- smart electronics that manage power, safety, and efficiency
When you press the accelerator, electricity flows from the battery to the motor — instantly.
That’s why EVs feel smooth, quiet, and responsive.
What Is Regenerative Braking?
One of the smartest EV features.
When you slow down or brake, the electric motor works in reverse and recovers energy, sending it back to the battery.
This means:
- better efficiency
- less brake wear
- longer driving range
Your car literally charges itself while slowing down.
EV Batteries – What People Don’t Tell You
EV batteries are not one single unit.
They are made up of:
- modules
- individual cells
- monitoring systems that balance and protect them
In many cases, problems affect only part of the battery, not the whole system — which is why repair, rebalancing, or stabilisation is often possible.
This is where proper diagnostics and specialist equipment matter.
Why More Drivers Are Choosing EVs
Electric vehicles are growing in popularity for good reasons:
lower running costs
fewer mechanical parts to wear out
smooth and quiet driving
instant torque and acceleration
suitable for city and daily driving
For many drivers, EVs are simpler and more predictable than traditional cars.
The Future of Motoring – What to Expect
Electric vehicles are evolving fast:
That’s why Kasia & Peter focus on staying ahead of the game — investing in:
- EV training (UK & international)
- advanced tools and battery equipment
- modern garage technology
So our customers don’t have to worry about what’s coming next.
