I had an electric car once.
My Pinto broke its timing belt.
The starter motor would move it along, could even shift to higher gears (non-interference valve train).
Got me to the next exit on the interstate, which fortunately, was pretty close by.
With a Ford dealer in sight.
Where I bought a belt.
And with my handy broomstick (for leverage) and a crescent wrench, I repaired it and was on my way again in a few minutes.
I had practice on that move. Leave the cover off so you could get to it easily.
