Why Your Electric Car Still Needs Regular Servicing
Many electric vehicle owners assume that because their car has fewer moving parts, it doesn’t need servicing. This is a common misconception that can lead to costly problems down the road.
EVs need to be regularly serviced and checked to ensure they are running correctly and safely, to prevent future issues from arising, and to keep the manufacturer’s warranty valid.While it’s true that there’s no engine oil to change or spark plugs to replace, your EV still relies on braking systems, tyres, suspension, cooling circuits, high-voltage cables, and complex software — all of which require periodic inspection by a qualified technician.

Electric Car Tyres in Aldershot
EVs wear tyres faster than petrol cars due to instant torque, especially on heavier models. EV-rated tyres with reinforced sidewalls and low rolling resistance compounds are recommended, and underinflation increases energy use by 5–10%, making monthly pressure checks essential.
At Gforce Tyres, we stock and fit a wide range of EV-compatible tyres suited to all makes and models. We’ll advise you on the best tyre for your vehicle’s weight, torque output, and driving style ensuring maximum range, safety, and value.
FAQ'S – Electric Car Servicing in Aldershot
Do electric cars need servicing?
Yes. While EVs have fewer mechanical components than petrol or diesel cars, they still require regular servicing to ensure safety, maintain battery health, keep software up to date, and protect your manufacturer’s warranty. We recommend an annual service as a minimum.
How much does an electric car service cost in Aldershot?
A typical annual EV service costs between £100 and £250 depending on the make, model, and age of the vehicle. This is generally more affordable than a comparable petrol car service due to fewer components requiring replacement. Contact us for a specific quote based on your vehicle.
How often should I service my electric car?
Many manufacturers recommend servicing every 18,000 miles, though the specific interval varies by model. At a minimum, we recommend an annual check-up to ensure your EV is roadworthy and all systems are performing correctly.
Can any garage service an electric car?
Not all garages are equipped for electric car servicing. Technicians should hold appropriate high-voltage qualifications and use correct safety procedures.At Gforce Tyres, all our EV technicians are fully certified and trained to work safely on high-voltage systems.
Will servicing my EV at an independent garage void my warranty?
No — as long as the service is carried out to manufacturer specifications using approved quality parts, your warranty remains protected. We only use approved replacement parts and work to manufacturer specifications so that any remaining warranty on your car is protected.
Do electric cars need an MOT?
Yes. Just like any road-going vehicle over a certain age, an EV needs an MOT Certificate that certifies roadworthiness. EVs must have an MOT from three years after their first registration date.
How long does an EV service take?
A standard annual EV service typically takes between 1.5 and 3 hours, depending on the vehicle and any additional work required. We’ll give you an estimated time when you book.
Do electric cars need oil changes?
No. Electric cars don’t have a complex internal combustion engine and exhaust system needed to burn fuel, so oil changes are not required.This is one of the key reasons EV servicing is more affordable than petrol car maintenance.
