Whilst I agree electric cars are going to be the car of the future, one thing that doesn’t get mentioned is the servicing of these electric cars.

Auto Express highlight this from figures supplied by IMI Institute of the Motor Industry that there is a serious shortfall in qualified mechanics to carry out this work. The figures are quite shocking as they say only 3% are qualified.

I can foresee repair work being held up and costs rocketing way above that of current mainstream dealerships.

Food for thought !
