Equipping Workshops for the Electric Revolution: 110 New Technical Data Lines Now Available on Autodata

As the global car parc rapidly electrifies, independent workshops face increasing pressure to stay ahead of the curve. The transition to electric and hybrid vehicles not only changes the nature of diagnostics and repair but also demands new kinds of technical data — especially when it comes to high-voltage systems.

At Autodata, we continuously evolve our platform to meet the demands of the modern automotive technician. We’re proud to announce the addition of 110 new technical data lines to our platform, with a strong focus on enabling complex repairs and maintenance for high-voltage vehicles.

What’s New?

Our new data additions are the result of rigorous market research, expert input from our in-house automotive specialists, and direct customer feedback. Of the 110 new lines:

  • 95 lines are focused specifically on high-voltage (HV) vehicle systems
  • 15 lines were added based on customer feedback, covering in-demand information such as commonly replaced parts like particle filters and exhaust gas temperature sensors

These updates are part of our ongoing mission to provide the most relevant, practical, and timely data to workshops, especially as they take on the growing challenge of servicing hybrid and electric vehicles.

Breaking Down the High-Voltage Content

The 95 HV-related data lines are structured into four essential categories. Each one plays a critical role in ensuring technicians can work safely, accurately, and efficiently on electric vehicles (EVs).

1. Vehicle Identification – 43 New Lines

This data helps technicians correctly identify and differentiate HV vehicles. It includes:

  • Electric motor code and type
  • Motor power and voltage
  • Battery pack dimensions
  • Number of battery cells
  • Voltage output and more

Having clear identification data reduces repair risk and ensures technicians select the correct procedures and components.

2. Drive Elements – 18 New Lines

Electric powertrains require precise data. This category offers:

  • Resistance levels
  • Voltage measurements
  • Angle specifications for electric motors

This information is critical when diagnosing drive unit performance issues or verifying repair integrity.

3. Lubricants and Capacities – 19 New Lines

Proper fluids and capacities are vital for thermal management and component longevity. This section includes:

  • Reduction gear oil capacity and specifications
  • Thermal management fluid capacity, type, and color

Incorrect fluids can cause system failures — this data ensures accuracy.

4. Tightening Torques – 15 New Lines

When working on HV systems, torque values must be exact to avoid damage or safety issues. We’ve added torques for:

  • Battery pack mounting bolts
  • Drive motor casing and mounts
  • Reduction gear bolts
  • Thermal management fluid pump and more

These torque specs empower technicians to perform complex repairs with confidence and precision.

Why It Matters

Today’s independent workshops face a dual challenge:

  1. Adapting to high-voltage vehicle technology
  2. Maintaining profitability and efficiency while doing so

Our newly added data lines are not just technical entries — they’re a strategic enabler for garages looking to future-proof their business. With the right data at their fingertips, technicians can:

  • Perform complex HV repairs they may have previously outsourced
  • Expand their service offering to include EVs and hybrids
  • Reduce repair times and increase first-time fix rates

These updates are more than a platform enhancement — they’re an investment in our customers’ capability to evolve with the market.

Built with the Workshop in Mind

At Autodata, everything we do starts with one question: What do workshops need to stay competitive?

These 110 new lines were defined in collaboration with real technicians, drawing on thousands of workshop interactions and expert feedback. From routine servicing to complex diagnostics, the information now available supports a wide range of workshop needs, aligned with emerging vehicle technologies.

Ready for What’s Next?

Whether you’re already servicing hybrid and electric vehicles or just beginning your transition, Autodata is here to support your journey. With these latest updates, we’re reaffirming our commitment to helping workshops succeed in the electric era — and beyond.
