What should I do if my EV runs out of charge on the road?

If your EV runs out of charge:

  • Pull over safely: Move to a safe location and turn on hazard lights.
  • Check reserve: Many EVs retain a small reserve after 0% for low-speed travel.
  • Call roadside assistance: Many automakers offer towing or mobile charging services.
  • Mobile charging vans: Available in some regions to give enough charge to reach a station.
  • Plan ahead: Avoid running to empty by mapping charging stops.
