EV repairability tends to be more costly than than that of ICEVs. However, EVs are 21% more likely to remain drivable after a collision.
. American and Canadian Tesla owners who've experienced a collision will likely pay $1,589 and $1,600 more on claims, respectively.
Electric car collision repairs also require 90.75% OEM parts to complete on average, as opposed to 66.50% for internal combustion engine vehicles. EVs also generally have a lower percentage of repairable parts and a longer paint refinishing time . All isn't negative for electric cars, though. EVs are more likely to remain drivable after a collision. Thanks to having a relatively simple powertrain housed between the wheels, front-end collisions in an EV will be far less disastrous than in an ICE vehicle. The notable exception is rear-end collisions, likely due to the large number of Teslas on the road that house HV components near the rear fender for charging.
Still, EVs are a new technology, and as component production and general awareness increase, these price disparities will naturally decline. The big question is how long it will take for EV repairs to be on par with fossil fuel-powered cars.
