Highest Power per Dollar*About “Best in Class.” “Class” means Level 2 (AC) mobile EV rescue chargers marketed in the United States for roadside use. “Cleanest Power,” “Best Portability,” “Lowest Noise” and “Highest Power per Dollar” are EVroadHERO’s own comparisons, based on the manufacturers’ published specifications and prices that we have reviewed. They are not independent tests, and products and prices change. Noise (64 dBA at 23 feet), weight (about 200 lb) and power (9 kW continuous) are EVroadHERO’s published specifications. Customer comments reflect individual experiences; results vary with the vehicle, battery state, temperature and other conditions. Questions about the comparison? Contact us.
“On one Tesla call, we had them turn off the A/C and precondition the battery while we drove to them. We added 27 miles in about 30 minutes — almost a mile per minute. We don’t get that every time, but it was impressive to see what the EVroadHERO could do under the right conditions.”
From seasoned tow operators to new business owners, EVroadHERO is helping operators add a profitable service, help more drivers, and grow their business.
“I love the EVroadHERO. I charge $125 and I’m in and out quickly—20 minutes. I do 200 per month in Atlanta. It’s easy.”

When an EV runs out of charge, a tow isn’t the only option. In many cases, a quick charge can get the driver back on the road and to the next charging station — saving time, money and hassle for everyone involved.
EVroadHERO gives you a practical, proven solution for real-world roadside situations.
Faster than a tow

AAA assisted about 160,000 EVs in 2023.1 About 4% of EV calls involved vehicles that had run out of power — roughly 6,400 calls through AAA alone.
If AAA represents about 25% of roadside assistance (our assumption), that implies roughly 25,600 out-of-charge events nationally in 2023.5
The Edison Electric Institute projects about 78.5 million EVs on U.S. roads by 2035.3 We assume out-of-charge events grow about 1.95× from 2023 to 2026.
Using these assumptions, roughly 50,000 out-of-charge events (about 137 a day) may occur in the U.S. in 2026.5
At an assumed $200 per session, that suggests about a $10 million annual U.S. mobile EV rescue charging market by 2026.5
AAA reportedly provides mobile EV charging in only 24 U.S. cities.1

The EV rescue charging market is real, growing, and wide open. Now is the time to get into this growing area and start your EV rescue charging business.

Practical information for tow operators, roadside professionals, fleet managers, entrepreneurs and individuals getting into mobile EV rescue charging.
Rescue charging is like bringing a small amount of fuel to a stranded car, just enough to get them to the closest refill station. Convenience charging is like filling up the fuel tank, bringing a car up to or near 100% full.
EVroadHERO equipment is designed for rescue charging. Convenience charging equipment is much more powerful, substantially larger, and can cost up to $100K or more.
Show up, turn the unit on, plug in the EV, wait about 20 minutes, unplug, get paid. It’s a straightforward process that you can learn and put into action.
Learn how stranded EV drivers can find you, and how to market your services in your area. Call for information about our partnership with EEErescue and reach more EV drivers in need.
