Towing a Tesla.

634 views

If you add a current to an electrical motor it will provide physical force. If you apply a physical Force onto an electrical motor it will become a generator. So what happens if you need to tow a Tesla? Could it potentially damage the batteries due to over charging?

Nope, you can put it into neutral so it doesn’t charge (the motors won’t feed power to the battery, and that’s automatic I’d the batteries are full). Also the batteries won’t charge that way anyways if the car is on (needs to be on to regen)
