An electric car needs a charging station connected to the power grid to charge its batteries. The car is powered by an electric motor that directly rotates the wheels, providing an efficient and quiet driving experience. Electric cars generally accelerate faster than gasoline-powered cars, making driving effortless and enjoyable.
The electric motor gets its power from a large drive battery that needs to be charged regularly. Since an electric car runs entirely on electricity, it doesn’t have parts related to exhaust gas treatment such as an exhaust pipe, fuel pump, hoses, or tank.
During the periodic inspection of an electric car, exhaust emissions are not measured, as the vehicle does not produce any. This makes the electric car a cleaner alternative for the environment compared to combustion engine cars.
An electric car has fewer parts requiring maintenance than a traditional combustion engine car, but it still needs regular inspections – just like all other cars. We check the following components in your electric car:
Due to the greater weight and acceleration of an electric car, it’s worth paying regular attention to tire wear. They may wear out faster than in a traditional combustion engine car.
Our electric car mechanics are trained in the e-Expert electric car concept.
The battery and other electrical components of an electric car contain dangerously high voltage, which is why repairing them requires special expertise. The repair work must be carried out professionally and with consideration for the requirements of the high-voltage system to ensure that the battery and equipment remain safe even after the repair.
For example, replacing or servicing high-voltage components requires that the vehicle is first disconnected from the power – i.e., separated from the drive battery. Once the repair is complete, the battery can be reconnected, making the vehicle safe to use again.
Most battery manufacturers offer a 5-8 year warranty for the drive battery, but estimates suggest that batteries can last up to 10-20 years before they need to be replaced.
