Business breakdown cover for electric and hybrid vehicles

Is your car or van electric? We're number 1 for electric vehicle breakdown cover* as we do more than anyone else to keep you on the road. With the RAC, breakdown cover for your EV is included as standard so there’s no need to pay extra – we cover electric, hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles, as well as petrol and diesel vehicles. We're already working with UK businesses such as Royal Mail, and British Gas to keep their electric cars and vans moving.

Rapid recovery

Need a tow? Electric vehicles usually have to wait for a recovery truck as towing can damage them. Our high-tech vans can lift all four wheels off the ground, saving you time and protecting your vehicle.

Expert mechanics

RAC mechanics are trained in electric, so they know your electric car or van inside out. You’ll be in safe hands with our experts.

EV boost

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. If your battery goes flat, we can send one of our vans to give you a 10-mile boost with our handy mobile charger. It’s worth keeping in mind that other providers won’t be able to recharge you on the spot – they’ll just tow you to the nearest charging station instead.

For any other faults, we’ll always aim to fix those at the roadside too. For example, if it’s a flat tyre, we can usually sort it out on the spot. If we can’t fix you on the spot, we can tow you to a garage or somewhere else instead.
