What are the long term reliability and maintenance cost of the e2o Plus?
by Ashutoshover 1 year ago0 views5 comments
The argument is that electric vehicles have fewer moving parts, and therefore have lower maintenance costs. But the e2o Plus is a new technology in India, and there are questions about whether it will hold up over time. Owners have beseeched the brand with complaints about everything from battery degradation to electronic glitches. Also major concerns are the cost and availability of spare parts, and in particular, the battery pack. Some describe the costs as low, others moan about additional unexpected costs, and some say they can’t find qualified technicians. In this article, we will explore the real world experiences of long term e2o Plus owners and compare the cost of ownership with that of a traditional petrol car in the same segment.

I was an early adopter so I knew there would be some issues. What bothers me, however, is the lack of transparency from Mahindra about long term costs. Warranties should be longer, longer and better, on battery and maintenance schedule guidelines clearer.

It depends on your usage, I guess. It holds up well if you’re gentle with it and don’t push it to its limits. I've heard horror stories from people who do long trips, or fast charge regularly.

It's a mixed bag. But it's cheap to run on a day to day basis, and when something does go wrong, it's expensive. The cost of replacing the battery is scary, and Mahindra’s support network for EVs is still limited.

Reliable? Ha! I have had my e2o in the service center more times than I can count. The AC compressor failed twice and the random electronic gremlins are too numerous to mention. And how do you find a mechanic that knows how to fix these things? Good luck!

I have had my e2o for three years now and it has been surprisingly reliable. Just regular check ups, no major issues. It is a fraction of the running cost of my old petrol car. The battery health is still at 92% which is pretty good.
