Electric Vehicle Servicing in Eastbourne
Thanks to the design of electric vehicles, they’re far easier to maintain than a typical ICE vehicle. Still, an EV is not maintenance-free and at Southern Co, we know electric cars and keeping them in their best possible driving condition.
Although there are no oil changes or engine-related checks to perform, your electric vehicle still needs to have regular servicing to perform to the best of its ability.
Electric vehicle servicing is not something all garages are equipped to deal with. Southern Co has specifically trained technicians at all our branches who can carry out services and repairs on all types of electric vehicles.
Is your MOT also due? Electric vehicles require an MOT just like a traditional ICE vehicle. Book online or call us to arrange your booking.
Southern Co are fully committed to the change towards electric vehicles.
Electric cars have the potential to reduce carbon emissions in the atmosphere. Natural gas electricity can result in less than half of the total emissions of the best combustion vehicle, this includes the manufacturing process.
Southern Co is geared for this change in motoring and we invest in training for all our mechanics, staff and fleet.
