If you’ve been searching, “Tesla mechanic near me” in the Greater Toronto Area or Unionville, then this article can provide you with the answers you need.
Do you know who the world’s most valuable automaker is? Maybe GMC? Perhaps Toyota? Ford? VW? No. At the time of writing, Tesla, Inc. is the world’s most valuable automaker. Not bad for a company that was only founded in 2003.
Tesla makes electric cars and trucks, as well as non-automotive products, such as solar panels and energy storage devices. As electric vehicles continue to grow in popularity, for both environmental and convenience reasons, we will see more and more Tesla’s on Ontario roads. But who is equipped to service and repair these relatively new vehicles?
If you’ve just purchased a Tesla vehicle, or you’re considering buying one, you might be searching, “Tesla mechanic near me”. After all, not every auto shop has the equipment, nor the knowledgeable technicians needed to service Tesla’s correctly. If you buy a Tesla in Unionville, who is going to service and repair it for you? AutoNiche can! We have the right tools and know-how to maintain and repair Tesla’s in our auto shop.
Electric vehicles typically need less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles. This is largely because there are several components in gas-powered vehicles that aren’t there in electric cars. For example, a Tesla has no gas engine, so you don’t have to worry about oil changes or oil filter changes. There are also no spark plugs you need to replace or emissions tests to take. This is why EV’s typically cost less to maintain.
One common Tesla maintenance requirement, though, is cabin air filter replacement, which you will probably need every two or three years. Tesla also recommends cleaning and lubricating the brake calipers every 20,000km. And while Tesla’s don’t require wheel alignments any more than other vehicles, the process is more complex and requires special equipment.
Tesla doesn’t make their own tires. However, several popular tire manufacturers make their own lines of Tesla tires. Some are designed for a specific model of Tesla, while others are appropriate for multiple models.
It’s not mandatory to put special Tesla tires on your Tesla. You may want to, though. Tesla tires can maximize performance, safety, reliability, and durability. It’s common to use special tires on any electric vehicle. This is because EV’s are heavier than gasoline-powered vehicles.
Because of the different specifications of EV’s, some tire manufacturers offer high-load capacity tires, or HL tires. HL tires can carry a heavier load at the same tire pressure as traditional tires. Another factor to consider is on-demand torque. EV’s need better traction because the tires are grabbing the road surface and enduring a lot of friction during the initial acceleration. Tire designers design EV tires and Tesla tires to maximize grip and reduce wear.
