An electric vehicle (EV) operates by using an electric motor and a battery to power the vehicle’s movement, as opposed to an internal combustion engine (ICE) that uses fuel to create energy.
Here’s a basic breakdown of how an EV works:
- Charging the battery: The EV is connected to a power source, such as a charging station, to charge the battery that powers the vehicle.
- Powering the motor: When the driver presses the accelerator pedal, the battery sends an electric current to the motor, which uses that energy to generate torque and power the wheels.
- Regenerative braking: When the driver applies the brakes, the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle is converted back into electrical energy and sent back to the battery for storage.
- Control systems: Various control systems in the EV manage the flow of energy and power to the motor, as well as monitor the vehicle’s performance and communicate with the driver.
An electric vehicle (EV) can typically get the following services from Car Proton:-
- Tire rotation, balancing, and alignment
- Body Shop
- Suspension Work
- Car Cleaning and Car Care
- Car Detailing
- Brake inspection and repair
- Battery system diagnostics and maintenance
- Electrical system inspection and repair
- Suspension inspection and repair
- General maintenance services such as oil changes (if applicable), air filter replacement, and fluid checks
- Software updates and upgrades
However, it’s important to note that not all multibrand car workshops may be equipped to handle EVs, and specialized training and equipment may be necessary to properly service an electric vehicle.
