18 EV MOT

Don’t miss out on potential EV MOT work. Did you know, If an EV vehicle comes to your MOT workshop and requests an MOT, you cannot turn them away.

There’s no requirement for electric cars to be tested exclusively at dealerships. However, it’s crucial to ensure the garage has the necessary knowledge, training and equipment to handle electric vehicles. Workshops need to be ready to service and repair electric and hybrid vehicles. But why wait – electric vehicles are not only the future; they’re the present. With millions of electric vehicles already on the road, the time to act is now. Wherever a workshop is, on their EV journey, LKQ Euro Car Parts are here to support them. From basic training to a complete workshop package, we’re dedicated to helping workshops grow their business in an evolving and ever changing vehicle car parc.
