Electric Vehicle Recovery

Electric vehicle recovery done the way manufacturers require: all four wheels off the ground, high-voltage systems treated as live.

Rolling an EV's driven axle turns the motor into a generator and can damage the drive unit and inverter. That is why EV jobs go to operators running flatbeds or dollies, not rope tows.

Out of charge is now one of the most common EV callouts. There is no jerry can equivalent, so the realistic outcome is recovery to a working rapid charger or to your destination.

  • Flatbed transport for all electric vehicles
  • Out-of-charge recovery to the nearest rapid charger
  • Flat 12V battery immobilisation callouts
  • Post-collision EV handling with high-voltage awareness

Electric Vehicle Recovery — common questions

Can an EV be towed a short distance?

Not with the driven wheels on the road. Even a short tow risks drive unit damage — use a flatbed or dollies.

Can the operator charge my EV at the roadside?

Some carry mobile chargers, but capacity is limited. Most out-of-charge jobs end at a rapid charger.

Is EV recovery more expensive?

Slightly, where a flatbed is mandatory and a conventional tow would otherwise have done.
