EV & Hybrid Towing Ottawa – Flatbed Transport for Electric Vehicles

📞 Need help now? Call (613) 317-3924 for 24/7 EV and hybrid towing in Ottawa.

Electric vehicles cannot be towed like gas cars. Their motors stay mechanically linked to the wheels, so towing with the wheels on the ground can damage the motor and inverter and even void your warranty. At Towing Ottawa, every EV and hybrid rides on a flatbed with all four wheels off the ground, handled by operators who understand high-voltage systems, Tesla Transport Mode, and low ground clearance. Whether you drive a Tesla, Hyundai Ioniq, Kia EV6, or a plug-in hybrid, we move it safely.

Why Electric Vehicles Must Be Towed on a Flatbed

Not all towing methods are safe for electric vehicles. EV motors use permanent magnets that stay mechanically linked to the wheels, and there is no true neutral that fully disconnects them. Towing with the wheels turning spins the motor, which can generate current that damages the inverter and drivetrain. That is why flatbed towing is the only manufacturer-approved method for Tesla and most EVs.

Our operators are trained for the details that matter: Tesla Transport Mode, correct jack points, the shallow approach angle needed for low ground clearance, and high-voltage safety after a collision. Every EV is secured on the bed with the same care we bring to luxury and flatbed transport, so your vehicle arrives safe and damage-free.

EV Towing Ottawa – Frequently Asked Questions

Why must an electric vehicle be towed on a flatbed?

EV motors use permanent magnets that stay mechanically linked to the wheels, with no true neutral to disconnect them. Towing with the wheels on the ground spins the motor and can damage the inverter and drivetrain, and it may void your warranty. A flatbed keeps all four wheels off the ground, which is the manufacturer-approved method for Tesla and most electric vehicles.

Can you tow a Tesla in Ottawa?

Yes. We tow every Tesla model, using Transport Mode to release the parking brake, or the correct jack points and skates when the car has no power. Our operators know the shallow approach angle Teslas need for their low ground clearance, so your Model 3, Y, S, or X is loaded and secured without scraping or drivetrain stress.

Is it safe to tow an EV after a collision or battery damage?

Yes, with the right precautions. Our operators are trained in high-voltage safety and thermal-runaway awareness. After a crash we assess the vehicle, keep clear of damaged high-voltage components, and load it carefully onto the flatbed. If a battery shows signs of damage we take extra steps to transport it safely to your shop or dealership.

What electric vehicles and hybrids do you tow?

We handle all makes: Tesla Model 3, Y, S and X, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and 6, Kia EV6, Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Bolt, Ford Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning, Polestar, and more, plus hybrids and plug-in hybrids such as the Toyota Prius and RAV4 Hybrid. If it plugs in or runs on a hybrid drivetrain, we can move it.

How much does EV towing cost in Ottawa?

Your cost depends on distance, location, and whether any recovery is involved. We always give a clear, upfront estimate before dispatch with no hidden fees. Call (613) 317-3924 and we will confirm your pickup and drop-off and quote a fair price for safe flatbed EV transport.
