Look at what type of EV it is

edit: just realised you might not know, it's an N line Hyundai Ioniq

It's designed for a race track, this is why I said

tbh i don’t really know of any real maint for a standard ev outside of tyres

That sucks. I don't have much else to add, but I'm impressed you've worn out brake pads on a EV so quickly. Hopefully the reason is you're pushing it hard and having fun! The N looks like a super fun car. I'd love to try one someday.

I'm definitely having fun; the wear is from track weekend visits (where the I5N holds its own amongst everything from muscle cars to Porsches). When the track weekend is over, it magically becomes a practical hatchback.
