Hyundai EV Maintenance
Hyundai EV Maintenance in Gainesville, GA
Owning an EV (electric vehicle) comes with many perks! First, they’re proven to require less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles, and second, they don’t depend on fuel to keep them running. Instead, they simply need to be charged and provided with relatively simple upkeep. It costs far less to own an EV than a traditional gas-powered vehicle, ultimately making driving an EV more cost-efficient. At Gainesville Hyundai, we make owning an EV easy. And if your vehicle requires service, our expert technicians are trained and available to take care of all of your EV needs. Get ready to feel confident with every mile you drive — visit Gainesville Hyundai today to become the owner of a bold EV.
How Does Owning an EV Lower My Maintenance Costs?
Your Hyundai EV does not have a traditional engine, which can contribute to lower maintenance costs. You’ll save money because there will be no oil or transmission fluid changes required and no parts to replace like spark plugs or drive belts. And according to an article from Car and Driver, because EVs use regenerative braking, you’ll need to replace brake pads and rotors less often than you would with a gas-powered vehicle. Overall, the cost of servicing your EV remains around a third of the price of servicing a gas-powered vehicle, according to Green Cars. In addition to your EV boasting lower maintenance costs, Hyundai offers a 10-year/100,000-mile battery warranty that covers any manufacturer defects, ensuring peace of mind with each drive you make.
What EV-Specific Services Should I Schedule?
You can keep your EV running smoothly by sticking to a manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedule. Routine maintenance may include cabin air filter changes, fluid flushes, windshield wiper replacements and tire rotations. EV-specific maintenance can include frequent tire inspections and replacements as well as suspension services. Keeping up with the necessary maintenance of an EV not only keeps it healthy but helps to maintain warranty coverage. You can refer to your owner’s manual for more detailed information on how often your EVs cooling system (which cools your vehicle's battery) and charging equipment (such as the power inverter, accessory power and charger modules) should be inspected. Keep in mind that EVs require service from certified technicians due to their elaborate electrical systems. You can bring your vehicle into our dealership for service if you experience any issues.
