With the rapid development of new energy vehicle technology, electric vehicles have gradually become a new choice for people to travel. In 2024, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in China will reach 40%, and the rising number of new energy vehicles will also allow the after-sales maintenance market to develop rapidly. In order to lay out the maintenance of new energy vehicles in the future, professional technology and equipment are indispensable. Let's start with the difference in the maintenance of the next car:
The core difference of the maintenance program
In terms of power system, traditional fuel vehicles are mainly engine-based, which involves the regular replacement of oil, filters, spark plugs and other wearing parts, which requires the consumption of consumables to ensure the normal operation of the fuel system. The core of the power system of new energy vehicles is the battery pack, motor and electronic control system, the health detection of the battery, the operation status of the motor and the stability of the electronic control system, as long as the regular inspection is ensured, there is no need to consume consumable products. It can be seen that the routine maintenance of fuel vehicles, which is the most profitable, has been directly cut in terms of new energy trams.
In terms of braking system, although both need to check the condition of brake pads and brake fluid, and replace the corresponding parts in time, electric vehicles have an energy system, and the degree of wear and tear on the brake system is small, therefore, in the braking system, the frequency of brake pad and brake fluid replacement is less than that of fuel vehicles.
In addition to the above-mentioned refrigerant and condenser, the new energy tram also needs to pay attention to the safety of the high-voltage circuit, because the air-conditioning system of the electric vehicle involves high-voltage electricity, so this part of the maintenance needs to have more professional circuit knowledge and obtain the corresponding qualification certificate.
In terms of chassis and suspension, fuel vehicles are mainly concerned about the wear and tear of shock absorbers and suspension components, while new energy vehicles need to bear more pressure and weight due to the location of the battery pack, so special attention needs to be paid to the health of the suspension system during maintenance.
Opportunities for future development in the field of car maintenance
Intelligent maintenance: With the advancement of autonomous driving technology, vehicles can be serviced and maintained in advance through sensor and data analysis** potential faults and problems. This opens up precise and efficient service opportunities in the field of car maintenance. Through on-board sensors and big data analysis, it is possible to preemptively develop problems that may arise, enabling preventive maintenance. For example, by analyzing the driving data of the vehicle, it is possible to improve the life of a component and replace or repair it in advance, avoiding unplanned stoppages or accidents caused by component failure. This preventive maintenance will greatly improve the efficiency and safety of the vehicle. With the further development of autonomous driving technology, cars will be more intelligent in the future, and first-class maintenance will become the mainstream. Intelligent maintenance not only improves the safety and reliability of vehicles, but also brings huge business opportunities in the field of car maintenance. Enterprises can meet consumers' demand for efficient and convenient car maintenance by providing intelligent maintenance services, so as to achieve rapid business growth and innovation.
Customized service: As different brands and models of cars have different maintenance needs and methods, consumers' needs for car maintenance are increasingly diversified. Therefore, it will become a trend to provide customized maintenance services to meet the individual needs of consumers. Customized services can provide targeted maintenance plans and programs according to the specific needs of consumers and the condition of the vehicle. This service model will better meet the needs of consumers and increase customer satisfaction and loyalty. As consumers' demand for car care continues to grow and diversify, customized services will become an important market trend. Maintenance enterprises can provide more personalized and professional services through technological innovation and service upgrading to meet the different needs of consumers. At the same time, maintenance companies can also improve customer stickiness and business development capabilities by establishing customer databases and providing customized recommendations. In the future, business opportunities in the field of car maintenance will be more diversified and personalized, and maintenance companies need to continuously innovate and optimize service models to seize market opportunities.
