Are all EVs using wheel motors now? I thought some were using a more traditional central motor power-train system, which would make flat towing just as complicated (or not) as an ICE vehicle. Maybe the wheel motor design can't be flat towed due to cooling issues?
The complication in an ICE vehicle is that you cannot let the motor freely spin, so there must be some form of disconnection. Not the case in an EV, just let it spin.
