EV servicing focuses on battery health, software updates, and electrical components rather than traditional oil changes and engine maintenance. There are fewer moving parts, which can lead to lower overall servicing costs.
A high-voltage battery check assesses overall health, charge capacity, and cooling efficiency. Technicians look for any performance degradation or warning signals.
Yes, despite regenerative braking reducing wear, EVs still use hydraulic brakes that require periodic brake fluid changes to ensure safety and performance.
Regenerative braking reduces wear on traditional brake components, meaning brake pads and discs often last longer than in petrol or diesel vehicles.
Yes, many EVs have cooling systems to regulate battery temperature. These systems require periodic checks and fluid top-ups to ensure efficient operation.
EVs tend to have higher torque and weight, which can cause increased tyre wear. Regular tyre checks and using EV-specific tyres can help maintain performance and longevity.
