OVERVIEW

What does EVHQ do?

EVHQ has been developed by industry experts to identify, qualify, and promote EV-ready repair shops across North America. Since there’s an increased likelihood of unseen damage with EVs, even bringing them into your shop can pose safety concerns. Mishandling or accidental contact with high-voltage components can lead to serious injuries to your employees and damaged EV or hybrid batteries are a fire or explosion risk, putting your facility in harm’s way.
