JAKARTA - There are several reasons why some people are still reluctant to buy electric cars. One of them is concerns about maintenance of electric cars, such as expensive battery replacement costs and the need to replace batteries after several years.

However, now most electric car manufacturers have offered battery guarantees for several years, and the cost of battery replacement has fallen along with the development of cheaper battery technology.

In addition, it can also be because they are not used to electric car technology and do not have sufficient knowledge of how to care for and use it.
