So if you are looking for electric car servicing in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire or near Redditch, you have come to the right place.
What is done in an electric car service?
But electric cars are a bit easier because they have a type of self contained battery and motor system as opposed to combustion engines that have a more complicated system.
The combustion engine has gears, belts, valves and parts that move which makes it a lot more complicated.
Regular car servicing is important in keeping it running to its optimum. If car servicing timings are ignored means an electric cars system may be more prone to failing.
So rather than saving money on the electric car service it may well cost more in repairs.
You need to remember an electric cars service covers safety issues so ignoring the schedule will put this in danger.
