Yes of course! Like any Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle, it’s designed to be reliable and trustworthy. Of course we’d always recommend  you visit a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle Van Centre, which has specially trained high voltage technicians to keep your vehicle in great working order.

Yes – with many newer vehicles and EVs having ‘connected’ technology, minor updates and improvements can be done remotely or ‘over the air’ (OTA) – just like you might do with software updates on your phone. And do make sure you’ve downloaded and connected your vehicle to the app for maximum convenience – for details on how to do this and the benefits, click here.

Compared to a petrol or diesel vehicle, it generally costs less to service an EV, because there are fewer moving and mechanical parts.

To understand your EV service intervals and approximate costs take a look at our simulator tools and don’t forget that a wide range of service plans are also available too. For details, click here or talk to your Van Centre.

Just like all our vehicles, all new electric Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles come with 3 years’ breakdown cover, provided by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles Roadside Assistance in partnership with the AA. And like our specialist technicians, our roadside team have access to the latest knowledge and training around EVs to give you peace of mind.

Electric vehicles are designed to be safe.  In fact because many of them are new to market, they incorporate the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles latest safety technology.

If you’re involved in an accident, it’s important that the battery is checked and repaired by a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles high voltage technician who’s trained to work on EVs.

Recalls or service campaigns for EVs are managed in exactly the same way as for petrol and diesel vehicles; we’ll let you know if anything needs doing and work with you to arrange an appropriate time for it to be done.
