Electric vehicles have fewer but more complex parts than those with internal combustion engines—and a very different risk profile. This includes, but isn’t limited to, more costly repairs, rapid acceleration, lack of engine noise, charging-related risks, unique battery failure and fire hazards, and resulting quarantine required after crashes.
Verisk’s Electric Vehicle Database provides over 175 unique technical attributes for existing models of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), available in different formats and via registration lookup.
