Driving an electric car requires a lot less maintenance than a gas-powered vehicle. There is still some long-term maintenance required, but the frequency and costs are lower with an EV.
About two dozen repairs and periodic maintenance normally required in gas-powered vehicles are no longer required with an EV. This means no tune-ups, oil changes, emissions tests, engine air filters, drive belts, transmission checks, spark plugs, mufflers and more.
As an EV owner, you will be required to maintain your tires, battery care, brake service, updates from the manufacturer and general maintenance (wiper blades, washer fluid, etc.).
Asking questions about the warranty is always important. Some important questions to ask include:
It is suggested that maintenance regarding the internal system be performed by a trained technician at the dealership. If the repair is performed outside of the dealership and something goes wrong, it may void your warranty.
Basic maintenance such as hosing down corrosive materials (i.e. road salt) from underneath the body of the car with plain water can be done at home. In addition, adjusting tire pressure, replacing windshield washer fluid or replacing the windshield wiper blades are all maintenance that can be done every 7,500 to 15,000 miles at home.

Electric cars offer the smallest footprint and the biggest savings on gas. Plug in to charge, and you’re ready for the next adventure.
Go farther on electric-only. PHEVs have an electric motor you plug in to recharge and a gas-powered engine to extend range when needed.
Save on gas without the plug-in. Hybrids have both an electric motor and a gas-powered engine that recharges the batteries as you drive.
Fill up less and drive more. We also feature traditional cars that offer 40+ MPG, because using less gas also lowers emissions and costs.
