Electric vehicle (EV) fleet maintenance is simpler than petrol or diesel vehicles due to fewer moving parts and there being no need for oil changes or servicing which in turn reduced labour costs. The key areas that EV maintenance focuses on are:
These crucial components require minimal maintenance but should be monitored for optimal performance.
EVs use regenerative braking, which reduces wear on brake pads and discs. However, regular checks are still necessary during servicing.
While EVs require these fluids, they need less frequent topping up and replacement compared to petrol or diesel cars.
The weight of EV batteries can stress tyres and suspension systems. Regular inspections ensure they remain in good condition, critical for safety and performance.
