The Safest Method for Towing an Electric Car
Inexperienced towing companies often get one thing wrong – they think that electric cars can be towed in the same way as typical gas-powered cars. But that’s a recipe for disaster, as an EV has several delicate components.
Methods like hook-and-chain or wheel-lift towing can permanently damage the low-mounted batteries and drivetrain, which is why many manufacturers advise not to use them. The safest method is flatbed towing, which keeps the battery, motor, and drivetrain completely stationary during transit.
Since the wheels of the EV are kept off the ground in flatbed towing, there’s no risk of damage to any of the components. There’s no risk of the wheels spinning or electrical system being overloaded, which makes flatbed towing the best technique.
We tow EVs mainly through flat-bed tow trucks, but if your EV requires wheel lift towing as per manufacturer’s instructions, we follow the exact guidelines to keep your car safe.

Applications of EV Towing.
When Should You Get Your EV Towed?
Battery Drainage
If your EV runs out of charging or suddenly loses power while you’re driving, it’s best to get it towed to a charging station.
Charging System Failure
If the EV isn’t charging properly, there may be some deeper electrical issues. You should get your EV towed to an EV repair expert.
Software Malfunctions
Did the screen go blank? Or you’re seeing high-voltage safety warnings? Contact a tow service immediately in case of software malfunctions.
Accident Damage
Even minor collisions can damage the EV’s underbody and cause short circuits. Instead of driving an EV in such a scenario, you should get it towed.
Wheel Damage
Many EVs don’t come with spare tires because of weight considerations. If you have a flat tire or damaged rim, consider towing the car instead of forcefully driving it.
Water Exposure
Getting into contact with floodwater is a major safety hazard for an EV. In such a case, turn off the car immediately and get it towed.
