The Facts About Electric Vehicle Maintenance

The good thing about maintenance on all-electric vehicles with electric motors is that it can be significantly less expensive than maintenance on gas powered cars with internal combustion engines. Some studies have found that battery electric vehicles cost up to 31% less to service.

This is in large part because EVs have fewer moving parts and fewer fluids that need checking. Electric vehicles don’t require oil changes, transmission fluid, fuel filters, coolant, or spark plugs. They also have regenerative braking systems that reduce wear and tear on the brakes.

The Importance of Regular Maintenance on your EV

Electric vehicles do require many of the same factory-recommended maintenance services as gas-powered vehicles. These include proper tire care like checking the tire pressure and tire treads, tire rotations, and wheel alignments.

You’ll also need to check your car’s fluid levels and replace the brake fluid about every five years. Other routine maintenance services including checking the windshield wipers, replacing the cabin air filter, and a few others.

Maintenance services specific to your EV center around your electric car’s battery pack and battery maintenance, its cooling system, electrical system, and AC and heating systems along with the braking system.
