Electric Vehicle Transport
Nationwide Electric Vehicle Transport Services
Electric vehicles are changing the way Americans drive. From daily commuters and luxury EVs to electric SUVs and pickup trucks, more drivers are choosing battery-powered vehicles for their performance, efficiency, and advanced technology. When it comes time to move one, choosing an experienced transportation partner matters.
At Amity Transportation, we provide professional electric vehicle transport services throughout the United States. Whether you’re relocating, purchasing an EV online, sending a vehicle to a family member, or moving a company-owned electric vehicle, our team coordinates safe and reliable shipping from pickup to delivery.
We regularly arrange transportation for electric vehicles from leading manufacturers, including Tesla, Rivian, Lucid Motors, Ford, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Kia, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Volvo, Polestar, Nissan, and many others. From a Tesla Model 3 or Model Y to a Rivian R1T, Lucid Air, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai IONIQ 5, Kia EV9, Chevrolet Silverado EV, or Porsche Taycan, we help match every shipment with the right carrier and transport method.
Because EVs often have different weight distribution, battery systems, ground clearance, software settings, and charging considerations, professional coordination is important. Amity Transportation makes the process simple with clear communication, competitive pricing, and access to a nationwide network of licensed and insured carriers.
Why EV Owners Choose Amity Transportation
Electric vehicles require the same careful handling as traditional automobiles, but they also come with unique details that should be considered before transport. Our team understands those differences and helps make the shipping process smooth from start to finish.
Nationwide EV Shipping
We coordinate electric vehicle transportation throughout the United States. Whether your shipment is local, regional, or cross-country, our nationwide carrier network allows us to arrange dependable service for nearly any route.
Licensed & Insured Carriers
Your EV is an important investment. We work with licensed and insured carriers experienced in transporting modern vehicles, including electric cars, electric SUVs, electric trucks, and luxury EVs.
Open & Enclosed Transport Options
Most electric vehicles can be shipped safely using open transport, which is the most affordable and widely available option. For high-value EVs, luxury models, performance vehicles, or collector-grade automobiles, enclosed transport provides additional protection from weather, dust, and road debris.
Clear Communication
EV owners often have specific questions about battery charge, key cards, charging cables, security modes, or vehicle settings. Our dispatch team is available to explain the process, answer questions, and keep you informed throughout your shipment.
Competitive Pricing
Electric vehicle transport pricing depends on distance, vehicle size, weight, trailer type, route availability, and scheduling. We provide straightforward quotes based on real transportation factors, with no unnecessary confusion.
Professional Electric Vehicle Transport
Electric vehicle shipping follows a similar process to traditional vehicle transport, but certain details should be handled carefully. EVs are often heavier than comparable gasoline vehicles because of their battery packs, and some models have lower ground clearance or advanced suspension systems.
Our team works to match your vehicle with the right carrier for safe loading, secure transportation, and reliable delivery.
Tesla Transport
Tesla remains one of the most common EV brands shipped across the United States. We coordinate transportation for Tesla Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, Cybertruck, and other Tesla vehicles.
Before shipping a Tesla, owners may need to consider details such as key card access, Sentry Mode, battery level, and app-based security settings. Our team can help guide you through the basic preparation steps before pickup.
Electric SUV Transport
Electric SUVs are becoming increasingly popular because they offer passenger space, cargo capacity, and all-electric performance. We arrange transportation for electric SUVs such as the Tesla Model Y, Tesla Model X, Rivian R1S, Kia EV9, Hyundai IONIQ 5, BMW iX, Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, Volvo EX90, and Chevrolet Blazer EV.
Because electric SUVs may be heavier than standard SUVs, proper trailer selection and weight planning are important.
Electric Pickup Truck Transport
Electric pickup trucks require additional planning because of their size, weight, and dimensions. We coordinate transport for models such as the Rivian R1T, Ford F-150 Lightning, Tesla Cybertruck, Chevrolet Silverado EV, GMC Hummer EV Pickup, and other electric trucks.
Depending on the model, trailer availability and placement may affect pricing and scheduling.
Luxury & Performance EV Shipping
Luxury and performance EVs often deserve an added level of protection. Vehicles such as the Lucid Air, Porsche Taycan, Mercedes-Benz EQS, BMW i7, Audi e-tron GT, and Tesla Model S Plaid are commonly shipped using enclosed transport for greater peace of mind.
Things to Know Before Shipping an EV
Preparing your electric vehicle properly helps make transportation easier and safer.
Battery Charge Level
Your EV does not need to be fully charged before shipping. In most cases, a battery level around 20-50% is enough for loading, unloading, and basic vehicle movement while avoiding unnecessary battery strain.
Key Cards, Fobs & Access
Make sure the carrier has the key card, key fob, or approved access method needed to move the vehicle. This is especially important for Tesla and other app-connected EVs.
Disable Security or Sentry Modes
If your vehicle has Sentry Mode, alarm monitoring, or motion-based security features, consider disabling them before transport. These features can drain the battery during transit.
Remove Loose Accessories
Remove or secure charging adapters, roof racks, cargo boxes, bike racks, and loose accessories before pickup. Standard charging cables can usually remain in the vehicle if properly stored, but personal belongings should be removed.
Check Suspension or Transport Settings
Some EVs have air suspension, low-clearance modes, or transport settings. If your vehicle has special loading instructions, let our team know before pickup.
