How are you going to push or tow the car, then?



Actually, even now the car can not be towed if it is out of power.

To tow, you need at least a booster battery to boot the 12v systems in the car. Or you need to lift it. Not a problem for an road assistance service, but potentially irritating if you are on your own.

The traction battery does not have to be online though.


You just have a feature to override it just the same as you can override the passenger side airbag.
