How Do We Tow Electric Vehicles Without Damaging the Battery or Motor?

At Tow Dallas, our EV towing services in Richardson, TX follow one rule: drive wheels never touch pavement. Electric motors generate current when wheels spin so dragging an EV can overheat the inverter and wiring. That’s why we also have to load all of the electric cars into a flatbed, taking all four tires off the ground. Our EV towing services also take into account the weight of the battery, which can weigh more than a thousand pounds. 

Depending on models and trims, our operators verify the manufacturer’s towing guidelines before towing. Instead of chains we use soft wheel straps to secure each vehicle while keeping the underbody battery pack protected. Our drivers activate tow mode also called transport mode so the parking brake releases without electrical faults. After a battery is completely discharged, wheel dollies are under locked tires and then winched aboard.

Collision cases need extra care because damaged lithium-ion cells can release heat hours after the initial impact. We inspect for smoke as well as swelling or hissing, then place the vehicle outdoors and away from buildings. This level of professional EV towing comes from ongoing training and not guesswork at the roadside. Call our dispatch team and share your vehicle model plus battery level and location to start your tow.
