One significant aspect that sets electric vehicles (EVs) apart is the disparity in repair costs compared to traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Unlike conventional vehicles, which often require maintenance for their mechanical systems, EVs have simpler systems with fewer moving parts.
