ADAC: Electric cars have breakdowns much less frequently than combustion engine vehicles
Electric cars perform significantly better in the breakdown statistics of the ADAC compared to combustion engines of the same age. For cars that were first registered between 2020 and 2022, there were 3.8 breakdowns per 1000 electric vehicles in the inventory. For combustion engines, according to the motoring club, it was 9.4. This confirms earlier findings of the motoring club - but now on a significantly broader data basis given the increasing electric vehicle inventory.
And electric vehicles are even expanding their lead: Although, according to the analysis, the frequency of breakdowns is decreasing overall, it's particularly rapid in three-year-old electric cars. The ADAC attributes this partly to the fact "that by now many of the initial problems and weaknesses that electric vehicles had in the first few years have been resolved through the manufacturers' learning process."
The most common cause of breakdowns was once again the starter battery, which caused problems by far the most frequently, both in combustion vehicles and electric cars. The basis of the evaluation were cases where the roadside assistance from the ADAC road patrol was called, which were not self-inflicted and where continuing the journey was not possible.
