The Hybrid Shop To Showcase Hybrid Battery Pack Conditioning at SEMA Show

The Hybrid Shop is building an international dealer network to provide environmentally friendly, cost-saving solution that virtually eliminates need for battery replacement in hybrid-electric vehicles.

The Hybrid Shop (THS), a growing international network of dealers committed to providing expert care for hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs), announced that it will exhibit its new method of battery pack conditioning for hybrids at the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

The SEMA Show is the world’s premier automotive specialty trade event.  It will be held November 5 – 8, 2013 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. THS will be exhibiting in booth 10167 in the North Hall.

“THS is eagerly anticipating this high-profile opportunity to showcase our new method of hybrid battery pack conditioning, which restores hybrid batteries to up to 95% of their original power and energy while saving hybrid owners money and helping to protect the environment,” said Matt Curry, CEO of The Hybrid Shop. “Our goal at the SEMA Show is to continue building our growing international dealer network of expert HEV shops with the finest reputations for technical expertise and customer service.”

By offering hybrid owners the option to restore instead of replace the HEV battery pack, in conjunction with a full range of hybrid maintenance and diagnostic services, THS is aiming to capitalize on a growing automotive trend.

In the United States, there are approximately 3 million hybrids on the road today, with twice that number anticipated by 2015. This changeover to hybrids is not just occurring in the United States, it’s growing worldwide. In Japan, hybrids have already captured 22% of the automobile market.

THS’ patent-pending method of hybrid battery reconditioning is the culmination of years of scientific study and trials conducted by Dr. Mark Quarto, Ph.D., EE, and his team of experts at Automotive Research and Design (AR&D), a leader in hybrid and electric diagnostic equipment manufacturing and training since the 1980s.  Matt and Judy Curry, meanwhile, bring to THS a track record of 30 years in the auto repair industry with 10 profitable service centers in the metro Washington, D.C. area. Their invaluable experience in operations, sales, marketing and branding is being leveraged to assist THS dealer partners with continuing growth and marketplace expansion.

By affiliating with THS, dealer partners earn exclusive rights in their respective geographic areas to provide a unique set of environmentally friendly HEV services that deliver maximum value and vehicle longevity.

These include:
• A battery pack conditioning solution that costs a third of the value of purchasing a replacement battery. Battery restoration can save consumers thousands of dollars, while relegating fewer batteries to landfills and less toxic substances to the waste stream.  At the same time, no new resources are needed to build a new battery.

• An innovative, science-based and technically-validated method that can be repeated as often as necessary.

• Improvement of fuel economy up to 35%, depending on the state of the battery. Drivers, in fact, experience better fuel economy and performance the minute they drive away.

• A comprehensive State of Health (SOH) diagnostic check up for HEVs that can spot future mechanical concerns before they require costly repairs. This diagnostic “crystal ball” uses a unique predictive analysis methodology to show how different mechanical components of the car are trending.

In addition, THS dealer partners are provided access to world-class instruction, proprietary technical equipment, education, operational/sales support and branding materials to position them for success across their local HEV markets.

“We cordially invite prospective new members of our THS international dealer partner network to stop by booth 10167 at the SEMA Show, to see this revolutionary HEV servicing opportunity for themselves,” said Curry.
