Do hybrid vehicles need oil changes?
I want to make sure that my hybrid stays in peak condition, but I don't know much about the mechanics of a hybrid. Do hybrid vehicles need oil changes?

Yes, all hybrid vehicles need oil changes. Unlike electric cars, hybrid vehicles still have the same internal combustion engine components that you’d find in a gas-powered car—they are just more fuel-efficient.
As such, you should do the same
