Re: Hybrid Specific Maintenance?
Nothing out of the normal maintenance you'd do on any other vehicle.
However...
They recommend 0W-20 oil, which Jiffy Lube / Jimmy Joe Bob's Lube Shack probably won't have...especially since Mobil stopped making it and Penzoil hasn't started distributing it yet. It'll be readily available within the year, probably.
Don't let that stop you , though- you can still buy inventoried 0W-20 at NAPA, etc, and bring it to the shop for them to put in your car.
Other than that, nothing out of the ordinary. The only item (other than the battery/motor system itself, which is obviously a dealer-only repair) on the not-so-ordinary side I foresee is the transmission. AAMCO probably won't be able to help you with the CVT, but by the time its out of warrantee, AAMCO should be able to deal with those, too. But that's out of the realm of ordinary maintenance, anyway.
Have fun choosing!
