How to find an electric car mechanic?

I’ve only been an EV owner for a few months. I know I probably won’t need to service it anytime soon. However, I’d like to know in advance what to do if I need to have my car looked at. How do I find an electric car mechanic?

It’s better to proceed on the side of caution though you’re right in assuming that your EV won’t need servicing for a while. To find an electric car mechanic, you can check in with your dealership or bring it to a private shop.
As the
electric car
industry grows, more people need answers about long-term services like where to find mechanics. At this point, the average EV owner won’t know much about self-servicing their vehicles, so it’s important to know where to look.
Dealerships—The dealership that sold you the electric car will likely have trained electric car engineers to help with servicing your vehicle.
Private—As EVs and hybrids become more common, private shops specializing in electric vehicles are popping up. A simple google search will tell you what’s in your area.
Ask Questions—Typical car shops are also beginning to accommodate the growing number of electric cars. Try going into your local mechanic and asking questions to find out if someone there is qualified to help you.
Finding a good mechanic for your electric car might take some searching, but one thing you won’t have to search high and low for is great car insurance. Download the
