Yes, electric cars require regular servicing to maintain optimal performance and safety. While EVs have fewer moving parts than petrol and diesel vehicles, key components such as the battery, tyres, brakes and cooling systems still need regular checks.
We know electric car servicing can raise some questions, so we've gathered some of the most frequently asked questions regarding EV vehicles and servicing.
During an electric vehicle service, key systems like brakes, suspension, tyres and battery health are thoroughly inspected. Additionally, we carry out software updates and general system diagnostics as part of the service.
No, electric car services often take less time, as they have fewer components to check, such as no oil changes. Most services can be completed within a couple of hours.
Yes, the battery is one of the most important components of an electric vehicle. Regular checks ensure that it's operating efficiently and help prolong its lifespan. However, EV batteries typically require less frequent servicing compared to traditional engines.
Electric cars are powered by energy stored in rechargeable batteries, which drive an electric motor via single-speed transmission. Regenerative braking converts kinetic energy into electricity, enhancing efficiency and extending battery life.
EVs produce zero emissions, reduce fuel costs and require less maintenance compared to petrol or diesel vehicles. They are quieter, more energy-efficient and come with tax incentives in the UK.
Ranges vary by model. For example, the OMODA E5 travels up to 257 miles on a single charge, making it suitable for long journeys and daily commutes alike.
