Why Modify My Electric Vehicle?

It’s a question we hear a lot here at PWRD — and of course there’s no single answer!

Much of the car modification world exists because no mass-produced car can truly be perfect for everyone. Even the best electric vehicles (EVs) are built to a competitive price, with compromises made to suit the widest range of buyers. But if you’re an owner who wants more — more comfort, more capability, more individuality — modifying your EV is the key to unlocking its full potential.

At PWRD, we design, engineer, and test high-quality performance and replacement parts for electric vehicles. And whether you’re here for daily driving comfort, bulletproof reliability, sharper handling, or track-ready performance, we’ve got something for you.

From Worn-Out Parts to an Upgrade

Many EV owners start their modification journey out of necessity rather than desire. One of the most common scenarios? Suspension wear.

Over time, components like suspension arms and bushes inevitably deteriorate — especially on heavier, high-torque EVs. You could simply replace them with factory OE parts… but here’s the problem: those factory parts are exactly the same as the ones that wore out in the first place. It’s just a matter of time before they fail again.

The temptation to buy cheap, Far-Eastern copy parts can be strong — but the risks are real. Unknown materials, questionable quality control, and unproven safety standards can all lead to headaches (or worse) down the road.

With EVs, the situation is even more compelling. The electric drivetrain is built for longevity. Your motor and batteries might still feel factory-fresh well past 100,000 miles. Why not give the chassis the same staying power? That’s why investing in PWRD’s upgraded replacement suspension parts makes so much sense — they’re built to last and designed with durability and performance in mind.

Style That Works as Good as It Looks

Some owners modify their EV for one simple reason: they want it to look as good as it drives.

For them, our PWRD Stance Plus Packs are the perfect choice. Lowering springs combined with precision-engineered wheel spacers give your car a more aggressive, planted stance — without compromising everyday usability.

A lower centre of gravity sharpens handling, while filling the arches just right gives a visual punch that mass-production could never justify. It’s a win-win: your EV becomes both sharper to drive and better to look at.

Matching Chassis to Power

EVs are famous for their abundant instant torque. For many owners, they’re the quickest cars they’ve ever driven. But for those coming from performance petrol or diesel cars, there’s often a sense that the chassis and braking haven’t quite caught up with the blistering acceleration.

That’s where our performance upgrades step in. Whether it’s uprated brakes for fade-free stopping power, suspension tweaks for sharper turn-in, or bush upgrades for improved stability, PWRD products help your EV feel as well-balanced through the bends as it is down the straights.

EV Modifying: A New Era

One of the biggest myths we hear is that EVs don’t need modifying. In reality, the opposite is true.

Because EV drivetrains wear so slowly compared to their petrol and diesel counterparts, it makes sense to invest in the rest of the car. With the right upgrades, your EV can stay tight, responsive, and exciting to drive for hundreds of thousands of miles.

And this isn’t just about performance — it’s about making your car yours. Whether you want a sharper track tool, a more comfortable cruiser, or simply a more stylish daily driver, modifying is the path to personalisation.
