Electric Vehicle Servicing

Although electric vehicles do not require many of the traditional engine service items associated with petrol or diesel vehicles, they still need regular maintenance to help keep them safe, efficient and reliable.

At Hopkins Car Repairs, we can carry out routine servicing checks on key components such as brakes, suspension, steering, tyres, lighting, filters and other safety-related systems, as well as advise on the general upkeep of your electric vehicle.

EV MOTs

Electric vehicles still require an MOT once they reach the appropriate age, and many of the same legal roadworthiness checks still apply.

We can carry out MOT testing for electric vehicles, checking important components including tyres, brakes, suspension, lights, wipers and other essential systems required for safe driving.

Electric vehicles still need regular maintenance

While electric vehicles do not need oil changes or many of the engine-related service items required by petrol or diesel vehicles, they still need regular checks and maintenance to remain safe, roadworthy and performing as they should.

Routine inspection of tyres, brakes, suspension, steering, lights and other key components remains important, and MOT testing is still required when your vehicle becomes eligible.
