Most villages have a mechanic that's used to working on the common brands/cars, if you decide to move to a rural location that's what you buy.

Then again, most electric cars barely require any maintenance.

Yeah, there are so many moving parts on an ICE that an EV just doesn't need at all.

The village mechanic will still be able to do brakes and suspension work which are the most common types of issues unless you drive a particularly unreliable car.
