Do I have to take a hybrid to a special MoT station?

I have purchased a secondhand Lexus RX 450H and would like to know if the MoT has to be carried out by a Lexus dealer because of Hybrid complications or can any MoT station handle such alternative fuel vehicles?

No reason why a normal MoT station cannot handle it, but, of course, if anything is wrong, a Lexus dealer will be bette placed to fix it.
