Electric vehicles usually require maintenance in the following aspects:
① Tire maintenance: Over time, the tires of electric vehicles will also wear out. Check regularly and maintain proper tire pressure to ensure optimal efficiency and safety.
② Braking system: Electric vehicles use regenerative braking to slow down and recharge the battery, but traditional braking systems still need to be checked. Brake pads and rotors may need to be replaced occasionally, but less frequently than on internal combustion engine vehicles.
③ Coolant system: Some electric vehicles are equipped with a coolant system to manage the temperature of the battery and electric motor. Check the coolant level and condition as specified in the owner's manual.
④ HVAC system: Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems may require maintenance, including replacement of cab air filters and occasional repairs to HVAC components.
⑤ Battery health: Monitor the health of electric vehicles. Some electric vehicles provide information about battery health on the dashboard or through an app.
⑥ Motor and drive: While these components are generally reliable, it's a good idea to have them checked if you notice any unusual noises or performance issues.
⑦ Charging equipment: Check the charging cable and connector regularly for damage. Keep them clean and free of clutter to ensure good connections while charging.
⑧ Software Updates: Keep your vehicle’s software and firmware updated to ensure optimal performance and access to the latest features and improvements.
⑨ High-voltage system safety: Inspection and maintenance of high-voltage components and safety systems can only be performed by trained technicians to ensure safety.
