How will the car maintenance and repair industry change as electric cars become the norm?

Will mechanics that one worked on combustible engine cars learn about electric cars and then get certified to work on those? Because they are vastly different kinds of vehicles.

  1. Hybrids are not that all different when it comes to the engine part of the equation. Yes special training will be neede so you don’t die working on the as they are high voltage vehicles, but most of the high voltage euipment is clearly marked and they use color coded sheathing to identify those cables that are high current. If you are that concerned you should start to take courses now to keep up with recent changes in vehicle. I have already taken some courses on hybrids to familarize myself with the different typs of systems they run and to safely "shut down" the electric part while servicing certain areas of those vehicles
