How Reliable Are Electric Cars?

At Mercedes-Benz of West Chester, we understand that reliability is a key concern for many Media vehicle owners. Rest assured, electric cars have come a long way in terms of reliability, and technological advancements continue to improve their performance. Here’s a closer look at electric car reliability:

  • Fewer Moving Parts: Electric cars have fewer moving parts than gasoline-powered ones. This reduction in complex mechanical components means fewer opportunities for things to go wrong, resulting in increased reliability.
  • Longevity of Batteries: Battery technology has significantly improved in recent years, leading to longer-lasting and more reliable electric car batteries. Manufacturers invest heavily in research and development to ensure the durability and performance of electric vehicle batteries.
  • Less Maintenance: Electric cars require less maintenance than traditional internal combustion engines. With fewer mechanical components to service, your electric car will spend less time in the shop and more time on the Glenmoore road.

Electric Car Reliability & Maintenance

While there are fewer moving parts in an electric car, that doesn’t mean you can skip maintenance visits altogether. There are still some components on your EV that will require regular service and inspection to ensure your electric model remains reliable while driving through West Chester:

  • Battery: Caring and inspecting your EV battery is critical to maintaining your electric model. Have your vehicle inspected regularly and keep your vehicle charged to avoid battery capacity shrinkage.
  • Tires: EVs are heavier than traditional gas models and, thanks to the electric motors, produce near-instantaneous torque. This leads to faster tire wear, making regular wheel alignments and rotations a key factor in electric car reliability.
  • Fluids: Your EV still uses fluids such as coolant and brake fluid while driving, so top up your fluids every service.
