In recent months, CarParts.com’s product offering for EVs and
hybrids has grown to include over 700,000 applications for the
repair, maintenance, and enhancement of hybrids, plug-in hybrids,
and EVs. Aftermarket parts are available for over 25 popular
vehicle makes, including Tesla, Toyota, Honda, GMC, BMW, Ford,
Lexus, Chevrolet, and more.
“There is a lot of misinformation out there surrounding the
perceived differences in parts and repairs for electric cars
compared to gas vehicles,” said CarParts.com Chief Merchandising
Officer David Morris. “But in reality, hybrids and EVs have many of
the same fundamental parts that gas-powered cars do–from brakes,
headlights, and mirrors to fenders, control arms, and shocks or
struts. Our dedicated shopping hub will help demystify the world of
EV and hybrid auto parts, making it simple for customers to find
the parts and information they need to get the job done.”
The shopping interface for EV and hybrid replacement parts leans
into the customer-focused experience used across CarParts.com’s
entire sales platform, featuring search by both part and vehicle
make. The hub will also feature the latest news, guides, blog
content, and maintenance insight for hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and
electric vehicles.
“As EVs and hybrid vehicles age, consumers are more likely to
buy aftermarket parts. Drivers are still in the adoption phase, but
we are now seeing a growing number of green vehicles hitting our
sweet spot of 6 to 15 years old. Over time, we've seen the number
of EVs on the road grow and thus the need for more replacement
parts, and we will continue to make investments in our technology,
supply chain, and customer experience to create the number one
online destination for the EV community with the information,
tools, and parts they need to get back on the road. The EV wave is
here to stay, and CarParts.com is here to be a part of it,” said
CarParts.com Chief Executive Officer Lev Peker.
