Buy Your Next EV With Confidence
Electric vehicles (EVs) are the future but buying a second-hand EV comes with unique challenges that traditional inspections can’t uncover. At Blue Slip Now, we offer specialist EV pre-purchase car inspections across Queensland and New South Wales, helping you make smarter, safer buying decisions.
Our mobile inspectors are EV-trained mechanics, armed with the tools and knowledge to assess high-voltage systems, battery health, charging capability, and more giving you the peace of mind you need before investing in your next electric vehicle.
Buying a Tesla, BYD, or Polestar?
EVs aren’t like traditional vehicles and sellers may not disclose crucial battery or software issues. Let us help you avoid:
- Hidden battery degradation
- Software limitations (like locked Supercharging)
- Safety recalls or unsupported firmware
- Modified EVs that no longer meet Australian standards
What’s Included in Our EV Pre-Purchase Inspection?
Unlike a standard car inspection, our EV-specific checklist is tailored to the unique features and potential faults of electric vehicles:
Battery Health Assessment
Check current range vs original specs Evaluate charging history and patterns Look for signs of premature battery degradation Optional integration with diagnostic tools for deeper SOH (State of Health) insights
Charging System & Port Inspection
Test AC and DC charging ports Inspect Type 1/2 connectors and CCS/CHAdeMO compatibility Detect damage, corrosion or software faults in charging modules
High Voltage Systems & Safety Checks
Assess inverters, DC-DC converters, and onboard chargers Visual inspection of high-voltage cabling and thermal protection Verify integrity of battery enclosures and mounting points
Software, Tech & Safety Feature Testing
Run system diagnostics for OTA update history Confirm ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) functionality Check for software error codes or warning lights Verify infotainment system, cameras, sensors, and GPS accuracy
Mechanical & Body Condition
Suspension, brakes, tyres, wheels, steering Frame and underbody inspection (especially important for low-slung EVs) Previous accident damage or poor-quality repairs Road test (where permitted)
