Jaguar Electric Vehicle Maintenance
Jaguar EVs save you on fuel costs and reduce overall maintenance costs thanks to fewer moving parts than gas-powered models. A Jaguar EV such as the I-PACE requires a service check-up every 2 years or 21,000 miles (whichever comes first). These services include:
- Check for recalls
- Diagnose and repair issues causing an illuminated fault lamp
- Report vehicle condition and additional work needed
- Reset service interval indicator
- Perform a total vehicle inspection
- Perform a road test
- Renew interior air filter
- Renew brake fluid
Additional EV maintenance intervals include:
- Flexible brake hose inspection and replacement every 63,000 miles or 6 years
- Battery coolant replacement and front/rear drive unit oil replacement every 10 years or 105,000 miles
Although EVs require less maintenance overall, they tend to wear tires faster, so keep up with wheel balancing, alignments, rotations, and replacements.
How to Plan for Jaguar Maintenance Costs
Jaguar maintenance costs vary depending on the services performed. However, planning is easier with the new Jaguar model warranty, which includes 5 years/60,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance as part of Jaguar EliteCare.
Jaguar San Jose also offers ongoing service specials to help reduce maintenance costs. Check available offers before each visit to take advantage of savings.
