Seeing an electric car’s range fall to zero can feel like an immediate emergency, but most EVs do not stop without warning. They usually display repeated low-charge alerts, reduce available power, and may enter a low-power mode before finally becoming unable to move.

The safest response depends on whether the car is still moving and where it stops. Drivers should prioritise reaching a safe location, contact specialist breakdown assistance, and avoid improvised towing that could damage the vehicle’s electric drivetrain.
