SGT Auto Transport has launched a dedicated electric and hybrid vehicle shipping service that gives owners a choice between open and enclosed auto transport, with enclosed vehicle transport recommended for high-value electric vehicles being moved across the country.
BOHEMIA, N.Y., Aug. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As electric vehicle ownership expands nationwide, SGT Auto Transport has introduced a specialized shipping service for hybrid and electric cars, giving customers a choice between open and covered shipping for their move. The launch comes as more buyers and sellers look for auto transport companies that offer enclosed vehicle transport, since a covered trailer better protects a car's exterior, battery housing and onboard electronics during a long-distance relocation.
Why Is Enclosed Transport Recommended for Shipping Electric Vehicles?
Enclosed transport shields a vehicle inside a fully covered trailer, protecting it from road debris, weather and highway grime in a way open carriers cannot match. For electric vehicles, that extra layer of protection covers exterior panels, charging ports and battery housings, components that are costly to repair and central to how the car functions.
SGT Auto Transport strongly recommends this covered car shipping option for late-model EVs, luxury vehicles and classic cars, where a single scratch or weather event can carry an outsized repair cost.
What Does SGT Auto Transport's EV Shipping Service Include?
SGT Auto Transport's new dedicated EV and hybrid shipping option pairs both transport methods with door-to-door pickup, so vehicles move from a seller's driveway to a buyer's address without a stop at a terminal. The service carries the same $0-upfront pricing and price-match guarantee available across the broker's standard lineup.
SGT Auto Transport has served 128,940 customers and earned recognition from U.S. News and move.org, reinforcing demand for dedicated EV shipping among vehicle owners. Customers can request either method through an instant online quote system backed by round-the-clock customer support.
