Millers Oils tackles EV lubrication challenges

Although electric vehicles (EVs) often are extolled as “low-maintenance” alternatives to conventional internal-combustion (IC) propulsion and its brew of critical fluids that require routine maintenance, EV drivetrains also rely on proper lubrication-and in many senses pose performance challenges at least equal to those of IC drivetrains.

Not the least of electric drivetrains' unique stresses on lubrication: electric motors can deliver maximum torque at zero rpm.
