1. Electrical system failure: Electrical components such as motors, controllers, and batteries of electric vehicles may short circuit or be damaged when exposed to water, causing circuit interruption and preventing the vehicle from starting.
2. Water ingress into the circuit: Rainwater may seep into the circuit of the electric vehicle, especially at the interfaces and joints, causing poor contact or short circuit, affecting the normal operation of the vehicle.
3. Mechanical component obstruction: Although rare, rainwater may cause rusting or jamming of mechanical components such as wheel bearings and brake systems, increasing resistance and making it difficult for the vehicle to move.
