Arnold Clark has partnered with battery diagnostics specialist Moba to introduce electric vehicle (EV) battery health certificates as part of its aftersales service offering.
The dealer group will offer battery testing for battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) during servicing, providing customers with additional information about the condition of their vehicle’s battery.
Scott Grant, Arnold Clark group aftersales director, said: “We have been actively promoting the benefits of EVs for several years and now Arnold Clark can offer battery health certificates as a valuable new addition to its aftersales offering.
“As battery health checks are not routinely included in all manufacturer service programmes, we want to offer customers the option of an additional battery health assessment during scheduled servicing, providing reassurance on the condition of their BEV or PHEV batteries.
“As EV technology evolves, more data becomes available, Moba’s solution captures and presents that data in a way that adds real value for both our customers and our business.”
Arnold Clark said it selected Moba following a review of several battery diagnostic solutions, citing the system’s ease of use, fast testing process, broad vehicle coverage and overall value.
The new service will be introduced across the group’s network as part of its wider EV strategy.
In 2024 the dealer group launched its own ultra-rapid electric vehicle charging network following a multi-million pound investment. Arnold Clark Charge now operates more than 60 sites across the UK offering ultra-rapid EV charging.
Alex Johns, Moba’s business development partner in the UK, said: “Moba is delighted to partner with Arnold Clark.
“Their extensive network will help us drive our mission to support the wider adoption of electric vehicles and promote the long-term health of their batteries.”
