Electric vehicle servicing focuses more on battery health, electric motors and software, rather than oil and exhaust components typical in traditional vehicles.
Generally, electric vehicles (EVs) should be serviced annually or every 10,000 to 15,000 miles, depending on your model and usage. For details on your particular EV, follow your manufacturer’s recommended schedule, details of which will be in your owner’s handbook. Not only will this help, it will also extend the life of your vehicle, giving you peace of mind on the road. For reliable, EV-focused servicing, trust Drift Bridge Group to keep your EV at its best.
Electric vehicle batteries can last 10 to 20 years, depending on factors like usage and maintenance.
Key areas checked include the battery, cooling system, brakes, tyres, lights and software updates.
A high-voltage battery check assesses the battery’s health, capacity and temperature management. This ensures the battery performs optimally and identifies any potential issues early to extend its life.
Yes, electric vehicles (EVs) still require brake fluid changes. Although EVs rely on regenerative braking, traditional braking systems are still in use and need regular fluid checks for safety and performance.
Regenerative braking reduces wear on traditional brakes by using the electric motor to slow the vehicle. This means that brake pads and discs generally last longer, lowering maintenance costs over time.
Yes, electric vehicles often have coolant for battery and motor temperature control. Coolant levels and condition should be checked periodically to ensure efficient thermal management and protect against overheating.
Electric vehicles may experience faster tyre wear due to the added weight of the battery and immediate torque. Regular tyre inspections and rotations will help maintain even wear and ensure optimal handling.
Electric vehicles often receive updates for battery management, infotainment systems and driver-assistance features. Keeping software up-to-date improves vehicle performance, security and access to the latest features.
