Drivers of Subaru electric cars don’t have to worry about a number of traditional maintenance tasks like oil changes. However, you’ll still need to visit our service center at Zeigler Subaru of Kenosha from time to time. Don’t miss these EV service needs to keep your 2025 Subaru Solterra running at the top of the game.
Tire Care
There’s one place where an EV will need a little more care than gasoline cars: the tires. EV batteries tend to be heavy, and their extra weight has been known to cause tires to wear out faster than with traditional powertrains. The type of tires you use can have an impact on your range, so talk to our team to find the right ones for your driving needs.
Brake Servicing
Both Subaru hybrids and electric vehicles use regenerative braking to recover some of the kinetic energy usually lost when slowing down. In addition to giving you more range on the go, this reduces the amount of wear and tear on your brake pads. However, while your pads will wear out more slowly, you’ll still need to come in and have the system checked out when scheduled.
Battery Care
If you take care of your EV battery, it should last as long as your Subaru electric vehicle does—or even longer. However, driving aggressively can reduce the capacity, from using DC Fast Charging stations too much to charging all of the way to 100 percent too often. If your range and capacity seem to be going down, you may need a battery inspection to see if it needs a replacement.
