Can Pure Electric Vehicles Be Towed?
1 Answers
Pure electric vehicles cannot be towed. Here are the specific details regarding the transportation of pure electric vehicles: 1. Transportation Method: Pure electric vehicles are prohibited from being transported by towing or lifting methods; they can only be transported via flatbed trucks. 2. Reason for Prohibition: The transmission mechanism of most pure electric vehicles is often directly connected to the motor without a clutch. Therefore, when the wheels rotate, they also drive the motor to rotate. According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, when a conductor moves in a magnetic field to cut magnetic lines of force, an electric current is generated in the conductor, producing an induced electromotive force. The voltage generated by the motor's rotation can potentially damage the motor's controller.
