Can You Flat Tow a Tesla?

No. Electric vehicles in general are not flat towable, and Tesla specifically prohibits flat towing for their models. According to Tesla’s owner’s manuals, you should NEVER allow your tires to spin while transporting your vehicle. Doing so can cause overheating, severe damage, and even fire hazards in some cases. (It will also void your warranty, but this will likely be the least of your problems.) Alternative Options For transportation purposes, Tesla recommends flatbed trucks or dollies that allow all four wheels to remain off the ground. Your best bet for taking your Tesla on your next camping trip is to drive it alongside your motorhome or to tow it behind the motorhome via a flatbed trailer.

What our customers are saying:

"WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
