EV Maintenance: Beat Anxiety with These Cost-Effective Solutions

Electric vehicles are a convenient choice in this era of advanced car designs and engines with different power options. EVs are sustainable, have no emissions, and offer a clean atmosphere on the buzzing city roads. The EV maintenance is also more effortless. However, there are so many doubts and fears about electric cars in India. The EV anxiousness includes:

  1. Can an EV provide the range the company promised? –Range fear
  2. We can find a petrol pump anywhere but there are fewer charging stations. How will we charge EVs on a long drive? – Charging fear
  3. EV charging requires a lot of time. How do you manage it? –Charging time fear
  4. EVs are good for the environment. However, battery production may negatively affect the environment. – Doubt on environmental impact
  5. What about EV maintenance? How much does it cost? – Cost fear

Many EVs launched in the early 2000s but increased after 2010 in India. After 2010, the government also took initiatives for a greener change. In 2025, the EV trend is at its peak. Most of the states have prominent EV policies. They offer subsidies and discounts on road tax. But till now, fears and EV maintenance anxieties have existed. This is why top automobile companies are taking initiatives to change society and thinking about EVs. One of them is Morris Garages. Let us check the EV buy and maintenance initiatives of Morris Garages to make EV drive easy.

Presently, the four bestselling EVs such as the MG Windsor EV, MG Windsor EV Pro, MG Comet EV, and MG ZS EV are obtainable. The table below shows the battery capacity, minimum charging time, and range at a glance.

Electric Vehicles Battery Capacity  Charging time Claimed Range (single charge)
MG Windsor EV 38 and 52.9 kWh 45 Minutes (20-80%) 332 and 449 Km
MG Windsor EV Pro 38 and 52.9 kWh 45 Minutes (20-80%) 332 and 449 Km
MG Comet EV 17.4 kWh 3.5 hours (0-100%) 230 Km
MG ZS EV 50.3 kWh 60 Minutes (0-80%) 461 Km

Solutions to the EV Charging, Maintenance and Costs

  1. With the above EV ranges (given in the table) one can easily navigate on a daily journey without any worries. However, the range may vary. It depends upon 5 factors: road conditions, wind and load, driving style, tyre conditions, and temperature. These aspects not only affect the EV range but also increase any other car’s energy consumption. Once people know how the EV range works, it will be easy to manage and maintain it.
  2. MG initiated an e-HUB app that helps locate charging points. Hence, anyone can plan trips in an EV. In addition, according to the government report the EV charging station is more than 26,000 in 2025 and increasing. Therefore, the e-HUB offers solutions on range and charging fear.
  3. The charging time may make people think twice before buying an EV. To address this concern, people can use DC chargers which reduce charging times. One can charge an MG Windsor EV up to 80% within 45 minutes. Also, a habit of charging may help with these concerns. It is suggested not to wait for the battery to charge fully or empty; do it during breaks.
  4. On the one hand, people may think EVs promote less emissions, but on the other batteries may impact the atmosphere. Electric vehicle battery production requires lithium, cobalt and nickel-like raw materials. Mining such materials has negative impacts on the environment. To reduce it, MG Motors recycles and reuses the old battery content to produce a new one. Only recycled batteries are used in powerful MG ZS EVs and similar cars by MG. It helps reduce the carbon footprint output of each vehicle.
  5. People also fear EV maintenance and its costs. However, with the enhancement of EV mobilities, these concerns are well addressed. The good news is that electric mobility requires less maintenance. Therefore, one must not spend too much on EV maintenance costs.

What Maintenance Does an Electric Car Need? 

Electric cars need less maintenance than a car with a petrol or diesel engine requires. This is because electric vehicles have fewer moving parts or engine oil. However, timely maintenance ensures smooth performance and longevity. It includes-

  • Battery Maintenance: Do not leave EVs at extreme temperatures for long periods. One must check the charge; it should not be emptied or fully charged. Avoid using fast charging frequently and check battery condition promptly.
  • Brake System Maintenance: Though EV uses regenerative brakes, the braking pads and fluid need replacement periodically. Regular inspection will help avoid any issues.
  • Coolant Maintenance: Checking the wear, damage or leakage of coolant and its connection is required regularly.

Other inspections such as Tyre conditions, lights, wiper blades and more help in maintaining EVs and keeping up the flair in the long run. For MG EV maintenance requirements, visit authorised PPS MG services near you.
