Seems like 60k miles for brake fluid replacement and 80k miles for low conductivity coolant replacement. Then also replace the normal coolant at 120k miles. This is for an Ioniq5.

I feel like most electric cars don’t need to use brakes going downhill. The regen is heavy enough to maintain a reasonable speed.

True, and ICE cars don't need to use brakes on long hills either. Use your transmission; that's why they put those manual shift features into the car

The Regen in my Kona will stop me even on the steepest hill if I let auto do its thing. Shits wild.
