Electric vehicle maintenance requires specialized equipment and facilities due to the high-voltage batteries and vehicle weight. Bluehands centers that can service electric vehicles have dedicated maintenance workshops. For worker safety, they are equipped with safety gear such as insulated suits and mats, as well as specialized tools.



There is at least one engineer who has completed Hyundai's Electric Vehicle Master Certification Program, a technical certification system for electric vehicle maintenance. Hyundai plans to maintain more than 1,000 Bluehands centers capable of servicing electric vehicles while strengthening maintenance technical capabilities. There are 115 Bluehands centers capable of servicing hydrogen vehicles, equipped with dedicated equipment such as hydrogen forced emission adapters.
