Stoneacre Electric Car Servicing
We provide electric car servicing to those with electric vehicles (EVs) - as with regular petrol, diesel and hybrid cars, electric vehicles require car servicing and general maintenance, too.
All servicing on electric cars is carried out by specifically-trained technicians - something that's very important when dealing with a vehicle as specialised as an EV.
We have service centres in over 40 locations in England and Wales, each able to offer manufacturer-approved electric car servicing for a huge assortment of EV brands.
Meanwhile, EV servicing can sometimes be cheaper than a conventional service, as electric cars often have fewer moving parts.
What Needs Servicing on an Electric Car?
Much like conventional servicing, our electric car service will include numerous checks on important components, including steering, suspension, brakes, wheels, tyres, and bodywork.
Your EV car service will also include more specific checks, for such aspects as electric battery faults, regenerative braking faults, and high-voltage system issues, as well as checks on your battery's charge.
While there won't be a need to replace consumables such as oil and filters, an EV service requires a technician to access the vehicle's computer to assess the car's electrical components, while also inspecting high-voltage systems and cables - we'll also examine charging cables to assess any damage and effects on performance.
Electric Car Service Costs
It can be comparably cheaper to service and maintain an EV than an equivalent ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) car. By entering your vehicle reg and mileage into our online form, you'll be explore electric car service costs for your vehicle.
With EV servicing, a regular service will ensure that the battery and electric drivetrain will work as intended. If you have an electric car serviced under warranty, your car will be covered for applicable parts in the event any extra needs replacing or repairing.

Do Electric Cars Need Servicing?
All vehicles should be serviced - including electric cars. Also known as an EV service, it is a thorough inspection to check that your vehicle is in peak condition.
By having your electric car serviced, you can keep your vehicle running as it should, as well as extend its lifespan. Servicing on your EV will also ensure any issues are picked up before they become problematic.
The servicing required on an electric car includes an EV battery check and an electrical system check - without these essential checks, a fault in the system could be a dangerous risk. An EV service also includes conventional but important checks on such components as the brakes, suspension, steering, tyres and more.
How Often Should You Service an Electric Car?
Most EV vehicles can wait up to two years before their first service. You can check your service manual for manufacturer recommendations on electric car service intervals.
At Stoneacre, we offer Scheduled, Full, and Major servicing. Prices will vary depending on your car's make, model, age and mileage. Enter your details online to see our electric vehicle servicing costs.

All cars - including EVs - require an MOT if they're over three years old. This annual MOT inspection ensures that your car is safe to drive on UK roads.
Booking an electric car MOT at Stoneacre means that your vehicle is tested to the highest quality standards. Our MOTs are carried out by electric car mechanics who understand your car inside and out.
If any maintenance is required for your electric vehicle, we'll explain any issues to you and only carry out electric car repairs with your approval. Our car repairs follow manufacturer guidelines and we only use approved parts and components.
