Certified Electric Vehicle (EV) Body Repair Experts

In today's age of electric vehicles, having an electric vehicle-certified body shop is essential. At Patrick Auto Body, we are experts in repairing EV and Hybrid vehicles, particularly those using carbon fiber materials.

Why Carbon Fiber Matters in EV Repairs

Carbon fiber is revolutionizing vehicle construction for EVs and Hybrids due to its:

• Strength and Stability: Carbon fiber materials absorb significant impact energy, enhancing vehicle safety.
• Lightweight Design: The low specific weight improves efficiency without compromising safety.
• Durability: Carbon fiber components maintain integrity under extreme conditions.

Aluminum Construction in EVs

The inner structure of many EVs, called a "space frame," utilizes lightweight, durable aluminum. This extends to components like wheels, designed to reduce weight and improve energy efficiency. Our technicians are certified to work with both aluminum and carbon fiber materials, ensuring precise, manufacturer-approved repairs.
