An automotive winch is defined as a system that is used for towing a vehicle. The system is mostly used by SUVs, pickup trucks, and other commercial vehicles,wherein a towing mechanism is used that envelopes the wire around the drum while keeping the necessary tension on it.

The working principle of an automotive winch is similar to pulley-chain mechanism,wherein the vehicle equipped with winch system is used to pull or tow the other vehicle, which has had a breakdown or has got stuck in the mud or for normal towing purposes. The pulling power of the winch system depends upon its towing capacity and the maximum permissible load of the cable used in the winch system.
