Electric Car Towing Oakland: How We Handle High-Voltage EV Batteries
Electric car towing requires more than just a hook and a truck. Our tow operators are extensively trained in managing the specific needs of electric vehicles. Whether it’s a Tesla Model S, Nissan Leaf, Chevy Bolt, or Rivian R1T, we understand the mechanics and electrical systems that make EVs unique.
Key precautions we take include:
- Always use flatbed tow trucks to prevent drivetrain damage.
- Securing vehicles with soft-strap tie-downs to avoid body or undercarriage damage.
- Carefully avoid contact with the battery housing and undercarriage components.
- Maintaining communication with the driver to confirm if the vehicle has been placed in transport or towing mode (common in Teslas and other brands).
We treat every EV like the advanced machine it is—because that’s what it deserves.
Towing vs. Mobile Charging: Which Works Best for EV Owners?
Some drivers assume a dead EV just needs a quick mobile charge. Unfortunately, it’s not always that simple. Many EVs require high-capacity chargers that portable units just can’t support. Waiting hours for a limited charge, especially in traffic or poor weather, isn’t ideal.
Here’s when towing your EV is the better choice:
- Your battery is fully drained, and the car won’t start.
- You’re blocking traffic or parked illegally.
- You need to get to a dealership or certified service center for diagnostics.
Our electric car towing services in Oakland are not only fast—they’re strategically designed to keep you and your EV safe from additional risk.
