EV Fleets
Electric Vehicle Recovery for Business
Businesses running electric vans and cars who need recovery support specific to EVs.
As more business fleets switch to electric, the recovery needs change slightly too – flat batteries, charging faults and unfamiliar warning lights are becoming a more common reason for a call rather than the traditional mechanical breakdown. We support businesses running electric vans and cars across Birmingham and the Black Country with recovery that takes these differences into account.
We know a flat electric vehicle isn't always straightforward to move, and that getting it wrong can risk further damage. We take the appropriate care with loading and transport so your EV reaches its destination safely.
Flat battery call-outs
Running out of charge away from a charger is one of the most common EV issues we see. Depending on the situation, we'll talk through whether recovery to the nearest suitable charge point makes sense, or a longer transport back to base.
Faults and warning lights
Electric vans and cars can throw up unfamiliar warnings that aren't always something the driver can safely diagnose. We'll help assess whether it's safe to continue or whether recovery is the sensible option.
Safe loading and transport
We take appropriate care when loading and securing electric vehicles, mindful of their different weight distribution and battery placement compared with a standard combustion vehicle.
- Recovery for flat battery and charging faults
- Careful handling reflecting EV weight and battery placement
- Transport to depots, dealers or charge points
- Support for mixed fleets running EVs and combustion vehicles
Supporting mixed fleets
If your fleet includes a mix of electric and combustion vehicles, we can support both under one call-out number, so you don't need a separate arrangement for each type.
