tau laa...tow truck got all all (but actually no also)

how to FREE (neutral) the ev is what i'm tryin to get at
as to whether manually (without power) can make certain settings on the vehicle to make it movable - doubt this
or
they brought some form of auxiliary power supply to power up the EV to make it move

Ever heard of wheel dollies?

ahhh yes, forgot bout em

that'll be the last option when all else fails
thought there'd be a better solution instead of this
getting them onto each of the 4 wheels can be tough - esp on grass / soft ground / gravel / off tarmac
since this EV was on the road still no issues

The bigger wheel dollies are frankly quite easy. Load them up onto each wheel. And then use a bar to lock the mechanism and lift up the entire wheel.

requires brute force strength to get the tire onto the mechanism - generally tow operators all badan tough no issue

there was an instance had to use dollies for both front tires (Front Wheel Drive), car was brought to safety beyond the emergency lane
right tire on road no issue, left one on grass (couldn't do anything, dolly kept digging further into the ground from the sheer weight of the car)

another tow truck came, powered up the AUX 12V batt with a bulky Powerbank, got the hybrid started and finally drove up the flatbed

in this incident, car is on a nice solid ground. so don't think there are any issues.

but from your context, I think they might need to use a hydraulic jack or some wooden planks.

yup, this case was on tarmac no issue

wooden planks were used but to no avail
hydraulic jack (the one they had or even mine) couldn't fit in with the already very minimal ground clearance at site
perhaps a different type (the one with rollers, that also i doubt) would've helped
car was already slightly perched with one wheel on road the other off
point to take note where to "park" vehicle for easy tow

Need this kind of lifter to lift the front of your car up.
