CHICAGO, Feb. 9, 2011 – When it comes to maintenance, the all-new Ford Focus Electric rewrites the owner’s manual.

The battery electric drivetrain in the Focus Electric reduces the number of moving mechanical components compared with a conventional internal combustion-engined vehicle. And that means Focus Electric drivers will spend far less time and money on maintenance.

Here are the top 25 items that usually require inspection, maintenance or replacement during the 10-year, 150,000-mile life of a conventional car that the driver of a Ford Focus Electric will never have to worry about:

• Air filter
• Alternator
• Battery
• Clutch
• Fuel filter
• Fuel injectors/fuel pump
• Motor mounts
• Motor oil
• Muffler
• Oil filter
• O2 sensors
• Power steering fluid
• Radiator
• Radiator hose, lower
• Radiator hose, upper
• Serpentine belt
• Spark plugs
• Spark plug wires
• Starter
• Thermostat
• Timing belt
• Transmission adjustment (automatics)
• Transmission filter (automatics)
• Transmission fluid or oil
• Water pump
