Electric vehicles (EVs) are the future but buying a second-hand EV comes with unique challenges that traditional inspections can’t uncover. At Pink Slip Today, we offer specialist EV pre-purchase car inspections across Queensland and New South Wales, helping you make smarter, safer buying decisions.
Our mobile inspectors are EV-trained mechanics, armed with the tools and knowledge to assess high-voltage systems, battery health, charging capability, and more giving you the peace of mind you need before investing in your next electric vehicle.

Look for signs of premature battery degradation

Inspect Type 1/2 connectors and CCS/CHAdeMO compatibility
Detect damage, corrosion or software faults in charging modules
High Voltage Systems & Safety Checks
