Ummm. wow...

No.. The only thing you have to replace are the batteries. Over a period of years they will no longer hold a charge.

An electric car has a lot less moving parts... There is no transmission, drive shaft, U joints, differentials, etc, etc, etc... So you have less parts needing replacement.

For example, the typical four-cylinder engine of a conventional car comprises over a hundred moving parts. By comparison, the motor of the Tesla Roadster has just one: the rotor. So there’s less weight to drive around and fewer parts that could break or wear down over time.

But the comparison doesn’t end with the counting of moving parts. The engine and transmission of a conventional car also need lubricating oils, filters, coolant, clutches, spark plugs and wires, a PCV valve, oxygen sensors, a timing belt, a fan belt, a water pump and hoses, a catalytic converter, and a muffler — all items requiring service, and all items that aren’t needed in an electric car.
