EVs may not have a combustion engine, but their larger lithium-ion batteries make them, on average, up to 30% heavier than traditional petrol vehicles. This added weight, combined with strong instant torque, can cause tyres to wear up to 20% faster than those on equivalent combustion models. Comprehensive tyre inspections during every service are essential for safety and performance.
Most EVs still rely on a standard 12-volt battery to power critical systems such as airbags, lighting, infotainment, and central locking. This ensures these systems remain operational even if the high-voltage battery is isolated or loses charge. Our technicians thoroughly test and inspect the 12-volt battery to ensure optimal safety and reliability.
Electric vehicles use regenerative braking, allowing the electric motor to slow the vehicle while recovering energy back into the battery. This reduces reliance on traditional friction brakes, meaning brake pads often last longer than in petrol vehicles. However, they remain essential safety components and must be inspected regularly to ensure your EV can stop safely in all conditions.
While EVs don’t require engine oil, they still rely on several critical fluids, including coolant for thermal management and brake fluid for safe braking performance. Following manufacturer-specified fluid inspections and replacement intervals helps prevent costly issues and ensures long-term durability of your electric vehicle.
