Specialists In Servicing Your German Car

At Volks Autos, we are proud to have made significant investments in nurturing our highly skilled HVE-branded technicians, all of whom are equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and technology. We ensure your electric vehicle receives top-notch servicing and inspections, strictly adhering to your manufacturer’s specified service intervals. Our services are competitively priced without affecting your vehicle’s manufacturer’s warranty.

What’s Included In My Inspection Service?

As part of your electric car service, our skilled technicians will conduct thorough checks to ensure that all traditional servicing elements, such as checking fluid levels, filters, tyre condition, and the braking system, are satisfactory for roadworthiness. Additionally, they will inspect items specific to electric vehicles, such as the charging cable (BEV & PHEV) and high-voltage battery components and cables.
