Can Electric Cars Get Wet in the Rain?

[DiJude]

Electric cars can get wet in the rain. Here are some precautions regarding electric vehicles: 1. The most water-sensitive part of an electric car: The circuit in the hood area requires attention during daily use. Generally, pure electric vehicles undergo waterproofing treatments, especially for the circuits under the hood. Simple exposure to rain won't significantly affect the wiring but may impact the car's paint. When driving in the rain, try to prevent water from entering the interior and avoid leaving the car in the rain for extended periods. After getting wet, it's necessary to dry the car promptly. 2. Storing electric cars in rainy weather: When storing a pure electric car in the rain, cover the vehicle's controller to prevent water ingress. Rain can also affect the car's paint, so if possible, park in an underground garage or use a car cover. If the electric car has already been exposed to water, wipe the battery and connectors clean to avoid short circuits during charging.
