Tesla vehicle diagnostics and service device
The global sales of electric cars are growing rapidly, driven by various factors, one of which is the continuous decline in prices. Tesla electric cars, in particular, are becoming more affordable, with the American manufacturer reducing prices for its latest models (Model 3, Model S, and Model X), excluding the newest Model Y.
However, some consumers remain cautious about purchasing electric cars, and this caution is justified. Efficient and reliable operation requires timely maintenance of electric vehicles.
The widespread adoption of electric cars is also hindered by the insufficient number (sometimes lack) of specialized service centers. Nevertheless, this situation is changing. Service centers are being refurbished, new workshops for electric car repairs are opening, and specialized equipment is being acquired to provide high-quality services to electric vehicle owners.
One of the most sought-after tools is the Loki Tesla scanner designed for service centers performing diagnostics and repairs on Tesla vehicles.
The Tesla diagnostic scanner can be used for servicing and repairing Tesla Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles.
