America Goes Electric.

In some ways it is like the turn of the 20th century.  America discovers the power and efficiency of electricity.  In this case, it is the continued sale of electric cars to aid the planet and produce a quieter drive.  Yes, electric cars are having their moment in the sun including the Mercedes S-Class and BMW 7 series.

Here are some tips for maintaining your electric car –

1.  An electric car’s motor needs to be regularly serviced just like combustion engines.
2.  Mind the battery…make sure that it has a long and healthy life.
3.  Watch the brakes.  Electric cars use something known as regenerative braking.
4.  Keep an eye on the tires.  The instant torque can be hard on them.
5.  Check the fluids…such as coolant levels and brake fluid.

We hope this helps.  If you are the proud owner of an electric car (especially a foreign electric model) please think of us for all of its routine maintenance.  We are the Topeka area’s foreign car repair specialists A.J.’s Import Garage serving you from our location at 501 S.W.
