What Companies Make Parts for Electric Cars?
I own an electric car, and I’ve heard that repairing them can be really expensive if you go through the dealerships. There’s a mechanic nearby who will do the work, but I want to make sure I get parts from a reputable company. What companies make parts for electric cars?

We’re with you here, a surprise bill from the mechanic is the cardiac stress-test nobody needs. If you’re looking specifically at companies that sell parts to the electric vehicle industry, here are a few and what they specialize in:
- Magna—General and widespread parts
- TE Connectivity—General and widespread parts
- Delphi—Powertrain Technology
- Aptiv—Electronic safety components
When it comes to electric vehicle components, most companies that have an electric car model supply parts for them as well. These parts are known as original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and have a certain guaranteed standard, as well as being guaranteed as compatible with your vehicle’s design. The flip side of this is that they can cost more, and sometimes are only sold through dealerships.
Before you have any repairs done, make sure you won’t be
accidentally voiding your warranty
. For example, if you have a Tesla, make sure you’re aware of Tesla’s Unsupported or Salvage Vehicle policy, and what rights you have to repair.
Exploring your options for car repairs is a great way to save money. Another great way is to make sure you’re finding the best company for you. With
