Does an Electric Car Need Oil Changes | Plug-in Car World

preview

Skip to contentI’ve heard a lot about the low-maintenance quality of electric cars but don’t they need an oil change since an oil change is usually required to maintain cars. The answer to my question took a bit of research and raised even more interesting questions.Unlike gasoline and diesel engine cars, electric cars run on electric motors, they do not have a gasoline engine or a diesel engine, and so they do not need engine oil at all. Apart from a few bearings and the primary motor (that runs EVs), there are no moving parts in EVs.Fortunately, these movable parts are designed to function perfectly without the need of changing any oil. How? The EV motors and bearings are lubricated and sealed during manufacturing; The only way to change oil inside the motors is to change the motors.But you never need to change the oil because the motors do not contaminate the oil, and the oil does not burn like in internal combustion engines. Neither the quantity reduces over time. Electric motor’s lubrication can last almost a lifetime. Since no engine oil is used in electric cars, there are no oil filters, and hence there is no need to change oil filters too.&nbsp;Electric cars do not need engine oil changes, but some other parts need a fluid change.Electric cars are setting a new trend, and they have posed a great threat to oil companies. Over the last few years, electric car manufacturers are working on further reducing maintenance needs. Such advancements will lead to more eco-friendly car developments.The reduction of engine oil change due to electric cars is a step towards a green future. With the rising trend of electric cars, the need for engine oil changes is also declining, and it is beneficial for our environment.How? Used motor oil is contaminated and carries toxic substances; used motor oil is a serious threat to nature. Just one gallon of used oil is enough to contaminate millions of drinkable water gallons. Imagine how much engine oil is being used in internal combustion engine cars and its impact on our environment.Not only the toxic substances found in used motor oil contaminate the environment, but they are a serious threat to life on Earth. According to research, the toxicants found in used motor oil can also cause cancer. Although the effects of used oil can be minimized by recycling and proper disposal but still, every fraction of wast oil contributes to pollution.The key fob for a Tesla is not small enough to carried easily within your pocket.&nbsp; Due to of the size of a key fob for the Tesla, I read that many owners leave it inside a knapsack or a purse.&nbsp;...Continue ReadingIf you were in the market for a Tesla, you may be wondering if it has a handbrake that you can engage once you are parked.
