You’d have struggled to spot a single EV on UK streets when the ETA launched in 1990. Fast forward 34 years, and the number of fully electric cars on our roads has soared to over 1,100,000.
EV breakdown cover for electric cars, vans and motorbikes
We handpick the best mechanics and garages around Britain and send one that’s local to you when you break down. We believe this way of working is efficient, environmentally friendly and helps support local economies.
One of our local teams is Parker Fry Recovery based in Peterborough. We visited them earlier this month to ask about EV breakdown cover and how they deal with a broken down electric car.

E-bike breakdown recovery
Our EV breakdown recovery services extend to e-bikes. We launched the UK’s first Cycle Rescue service 30 years ago, and include it for free with every cycle insurance policy of ours. Alternatively, we sell it as a standalone service for £24 per year.
If your e-bike or electric cargo bike suffers a puncture, mechanical issue, or even a flat battery, we can send a recovery lorry to rescue you.

The ethical choice
The ETA was established in 1990 as an ethical provider of green, reliable travel services. Over 30 years on, we continue to offer cycle insurance , breakdown cover and mobility scooter insurance while putting concern for the environment at the heart of all we do.
The Good Shopping Guide judges us to be the UK’s most ethical provider.
