EVs don’t need fluids… right? Not quite. ⚡
Removing the conventional engine doesn’t remove the need for specialist fluid technology. Depending on the vehicle and application, EVs and hybrids may still require:
• Thermal-management fluids
• Electric driveline fluids
• Brake fluids
• Specialist greases
The key is choosing the correct product for the specific application—never simply by bottle colour or a generic fluid name.
One example is FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101, developed for compatible wet e-axle applications.
