Finding a quality car service for your electric car can be tricky since you may struggle to find an EV car mechanic, and not all garages offer EV servicing. The same applies to electric car repairs.

There are some key differences between EV servicing vs petrol engine servicing. Electric vehicles need servicing less frequently because they have fewer moving parts than traditional internal combustion cars. However, regular electric car maintenance is essential, and you should always stick to the intervals laid out in your servicing schedule.

Regarding EV vs hybrid car servicing, while electric cars are cheaper to service, hybrids are often more expensive than ICE cars because they have both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor that needs maintenance. An electric car service typically focuses on batteries, electric motor(s), oil, coolant, brakes, tyres and suspension.
