Many people have questions about maintenance and service when leasing an electric vehicle. How much work is involved? What support can you expect? Fortunately, EV leasing or electric van leasing offers several advantages, especially when you partner with a company like EVFY, which understands the unique needs of electric vehicles. 

From routine checks to comprehensive service packages, let's explore the maintenance and service options available for leased electric vans and how they keep your fleet running smoothly.

Routine Maintenance for Electric Vans

While electric van leasing is often associated with lower maintenance costs compared to traditional vehicles, some routine upkeep is still necessary. The good news? Electric vehicles (EVs) have fewer moving parts, meaning less can go wrong, and the overall cost of maintenance is reduced.

Here are the key areas to focus on:

  1. Tire Maintenance: Electric vehicles have strong torque, which can wear down tires faster than gas-powered vans. Regular tire rotations help to even out wear and extend tire life.

  2. Brake Inspections: With regenerative braking systems, electric vans tend to have less wear on their brake pads. However, periodic brake checks are still essential to ensure safety and optimal performance.

  3. Battery Health: The battery is the most important part of an electric vehicle. Regular health checks will ensure the battery is performing at its peak, maintaining range and charging efficiency.

  4. Software Updates: Electric vans rely heavily on software. These updates can improve efficiency, enhance safety features, and even increase range. Always keep your software up-to-date.

Most EV leasing agreements will include these routine maintenance services. Companies often provide service packages that cover all of this, so you can drive with confidence, knowing your van is well taken care of.

Warranty Coverage for Leased Electric Vans

One of the biggest perks of electric vehicle leasing is the extensive warranty coverage. Leasing an electric van means you're covered for many potential issues, especially the expensive ones, like the battery and powertrain.

Here's what you can expect from EVFY and other top leasing companies:

  • Battery Warranty: Most electric vehicle manufacturers offer warranties that cover the battery for 8-10 years or a certain mileage limit. This means that if your battery has performance issues during the lease, it will likely be replaced or repaired at no cost to you.

  • Powertrain Warranty: Electric vans have fewer mechanical parts, but the ones they do have—like the motor and drivetrain—are critical. A powertrain warranty ensures these components are covered in case of failure.

  • Comprehensive Vehicle Warranty: Beyond the battery and powertrain, you’ll also have general warranty coverage that includes electronics, the interior, and other essential systems. If something goes wrong, it’ll be fixed without affecting your budget.

With these warranties in place, you're protected from unexpected costs, which makes electric van leasing a safe and cost-effective choice. Plus, with EVFY, you get extra assurance that your van will remain in top condition throughout the lease term.

Specialized Service Packages with EVFY

When you lease an electric van through a company like EVFY, you're not just getting the vehicle—you're getting access to a full suite of specialized services designed to keep your fleet running smoothly. These service packages are what truly set EVFY apart from traditional leasing companies.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • 24/7 Roadside Assistance: No one wants to get stranded on the road. EVFY provides round-the-clock roadside assistance, whether it’s a flat tire or a charging issue. We’ve got you covered.

  • Battery Replacement: Battery health is a top concern for anyone driving an electric vehicle. If your battery falls below a certain capacity during the lease, EVFY guarantees a replacement, ensuring your van maintains its full range.

  • Wear and Tear Coverage: Electric vans will experience normal wear and tear, especially if they’re part of a busy fleet. EVFY’s service packages cover this, so you’re not hit with unexpected costs when returning the vehicle.

By opting for EVFY's service packages, you ensure that your leased electric van stays in top condition, minimizing downtime and maximizing performance.
