“Many of the checks during an EV MOT are the same as those on a standard MOT. These include the brakes, tyres, suspension, lights, steering, seatbelts, and windscreen wipers. EVs are exempt from emissions tests and engine-related checks like oil levels and spark plugs. At the time of writing, high-voltage batteries are not part of the MOT inspection.”
