Electric vehicles (EVs) ka craze India me fast grow ho raha hai, lekin sabse bada question yahi hota hai — kya EVs sach me maintenance me saste padte hain? Realistically dekha jaye to EVs me engine oil, clutch, gearbox jaise components nahi hote, isliye regular servicing ka cost kaafi kam hota hai.
Petrol cars me har 6–12 months me servicing, oil change aur wear-and-tear parts ka expense add hota rehta hai. EVs me mainly battery health aur software updates pe focus hota hai. However, EV ka sabse costly component battery hoti hai, jise replace karna mehenga ho sakta hai — lekin ye 6–8 saal tak easily chalti hai.
Long-term perspective se dekha jaye to EVs ka maintenance cost petrol cars se 30–50% tak kam ho sakta hai. Charging cost bhi fuel ke comparison me kaafi low hoti hai.
Conclusion simple hai: agar aap daily city driving karte ho, to EV financially smart choice ho sakti hai.
