EV and Hybrid Smash Repairs for Every Major Brand

Tesla, BYD, MG, GWM and more. Our staff are EV trained and qualified, with years of hands-on experience and genuine parts sourced per brand.

EV AND HYBRID REPAIRS FOR EVERY BRAND ON THE ROAD

Electric and hybrid vehicles aren’t put together like a standard petrol car. High-voltage systems, sensitive electronics, and structural components hidden under the panels all need to be handled with care. A lot of repairers hesitate to touch them at all, and most that do only talk about one brand.
We work on more than just Tesla. Our staff are EV trained and qualified, with years of hands-on experience across the full range of EVs on Melbourne roads today, including Chinese EV brands like BYD, MG, GWM and Chery, alongside Tesla and other international manufacturers. As more Chinese EV brands become some of the most popular electric vehicles in Australia, we’ve made sure we can look after them properly, not treat them as an afterthought.

Parts matter just as much as technique. We source genuine parts per brand, whether that’s Tesla, BYD, MG or another EV manufacturer, rather than treating every electric vehicle the same way. We’re also continuing to invest in further EV training as the technology and safety standards keep evolving, so our approach stays current.

Chinese EVs Deserve the Same Care as Any Other Brand

BYD, MG, GWM and Chery have become some of the fastest-growing EV brands in Australia, but plenty of panel shops still aren’t set up to repair them properly. We’ve made sure that’s not the case here. Our team has hands-on experience with these brands specifically, not just a general idea of how EVs work.
Not sure if we’ve worked on your exact make and model before? Get in touch and we’ll let you know honestly whether it’s something we can take care of. Electric and hybrid vehicles are still cars at the end of the day, ones that deserve the same care and attention to detail as anything else that comes through our workshop.

Called these guys for some paint work to some aftermarket car parts. They were prompt and friendly even making time that afternoon to see the parts. They walked me through everything related to the parts and the process. I wanted to install the parts myself and they even gave me a lot of advice to help make sure it’s all done properly. The pricing was reasonable and fair and they got my parts done within 2 weeks. Picked up them up today and super happy with the end result paint work. Communication was great throughout the whole time even for small parts. I’d highly recommend these guys to anyone for car repairs or repainting because they know their stuff.

I engaged Vitra Autobodies to undertake my insurance repair work on recommendation of a close friend. I can say that they are definitely my 'preferred repairer' moving forward. Rohit did a great job not only with the quality of the work, but in terms of maintaining communication with me and giving regular updates. Even after the work was completed, he went to the trouble of detailing the car, which was a big job given I have 3 kids who treat the interior like a skip bin. I will not hesitate to recommend Vitra Bodyworks to anyone who asks moving forward.

The boys helped me out with my boot lid not closing. Called earlier in the day, came in later and the guys knew exactly what was wrong and helped get it fixed in a few minutes. Even better the legends didn’t charge for it. Couldn’t recommend them enough, cheers!!
