Cleaner Driveways. Cleaner Living.
Electric vehicles do more than help clean the air. By eliminating engine oil and reducing the number of leak-prone fluids, they can also help keep your garage, driveway and neighborhood cleaner.
No engine oil. No oil changes. No oil stains.
A battery-electric vehicle has no gasoline engine, which means it does not need engine oil or routine oil changes. That removes one of the most common sources of stains on garage floors, carports and concrete driveways.
Electric vehicles still contain important components and fluids, including brake fluid and thermal-management coolant, but their simpler drivetrains generally have fewer fluids and fewer opportunities for leaks than conventional vehicles.
A small change that can make a visible difference.
A cleaner drivetrain can mean fewer stains, less maintenance and less time dealing with the mess associated with engine oil.
Protect your driveway
Engine-oil stains can soak into porous concrete and become difficult or expensive to remove.
- No engine-oil spots beneath your vehicle
- Less need for degreasers or pressure washing
- Fewer stubborn stains on garage floors
Keep the mess outside
A cleaner parking area means less grime for shoes, paws and tires to track into your home.
- A cleaner space for children and pets
- Less risk of stepping in oily residue
- A garage that is easier to use and maintain
Skip routine oil service
Without engine oil, battery-electric vehicles do not require recurring oil-change appointments.
- No oil-change scheduling
- No used engine oil to handle or dispose of
- More time for the things that matter
Cleaner pavement can help protect local waterways.
Fluids that leak onto pavement can be carried by rain and runoff into storm drains. Reducing vehicle leaks helps reduce one potential source of contamination around homes, streets and parking areas.
An EV eliminates engine-oil leaks and reduces the number of automotive fluids that could reach the pavement.
Cheaper. Faster. Better.
A cleaner driveway is one more way electric vehicles simplify everyday ownership.
Avoid recurring oil changes and reduce the need to clean engine-oil stains from your property.
Spend less time at quick-lube shops and less time scrubbing stubborn stains at home.
Enjoy a cleaner garage, a tidier driveway and fewer leak-prone fluids beneath your vehicle.
Cleaner transportation starts at home.
Choosing an electric vehicle can help keep the places where you live, park and play cleaner, one driveway at a time.
