Many fleet owners and operators are interested in reducing operational and maintenance costs with electric vehicles (EVs), but they worry about vehicle safety. This is referred to as “well-to-wheel emissions.” Maintenance is one of the areas where EVs are safer than ICE vehicles because they have far fewer moving parts.
