Electric Vehicle Service Questions — EVS China.

Not yet — EVS is opening in China and this site is how you can follow it. We run specialist electric-vehicle workshops elsewhere in the Gulf, and the China centre is in preparation.

There is no address or phone number to give you today, and we would rather say that plainly than publish a placeholder. If you would like to know the moment we open, register your interest.

Full-electric and plug-in hybrid cars, across the mainstream and Chinese ranges — Tesla, BYD, Zeekr, Avatr and the German and Korean models that reach this market through the used trade. The brands page lists what the centre is being set up for.

No — plug-in hybrids too, and in this market they are a large part of the work. A hybrid carries a petrol engine with its own oil, filters, plugs and cooling circuit alongside a high-voltage battery, so it needs two maintenance schedules rather than one.

What EVS does not do is general petrol-car work unrelated to an electrified powertrain. See the services the centre is being set up for.

Yes, once the centre opens: bodywork, panel replacement, structural alignment and the sensor and camera recalibration an electrified car needs afterwards. That last part is what a general body shop usually cannot finish.

There is nowhere to bring a car today. Register your interest and we will tell you the day the bay is open.

Yes — from brakes and suspension to high-voltage battery repair, key and module programming and firmware updates. Keeping both under one roof is the point: an electrified car that is shuttled between a general garage and a specialist usually comes back with half the job done.

Accident claims and damage documentation are part of the body and paint side, and the centre will handle both. Direct billing depends on agreements with individual insurers, and EVS has not yet opened in China, so there are none to describe today. Whatever is in place at opening will be stated here plainly rather than implied.

Yes, and in this climate the annual check matters more than the service schedule suggests. Low- and high-voltage diagnostics, battery state-of-health measurement and the thermal system are the three that decide what an electrified car is worth running here.

Tooling and training built for electrified cars rather than adapted to them: insulated tools, high-voltage safety procedure, platform-specific diagnostic software and technicians certified to open a battery pack. More about EVS.

Not yet. There is no workshop to bring a car to, and we will not take a booking we cannot honour. Leave your details and we will contact you as soon as the centre opens — one email, not a newsletter.

Parts that meet or exceed the manufacturer's specification, and we will tell you which is which on the quote. Where a repair is viable instead of a replacement — which on a battery pack is often the difference between a four-figure and a five-figure bill — we will say so.
