The invention relates to a lifting device (10) for the transportation of a vehicle (500), in particular a trailer and/or motor vehicle, comprising a support structure (100) which is suitable for releasable or firm connection to the vehicle, in particular to a vehicle underbody of the vehicle (500), and comprising at least one lifting unit (200, 201) which is provided to lift the vehicle (500) in a lifting direction (h) from a lowered vehicle position, in which the vehicle (500) is placed on a surface (400), into a completely or partially lifted vehicle position. The problem addressed by the present invention is that of providing a lifting device for the transportation of a vehicle, which device makes it possible in particular to free even a heavy vehicle having a weight of at least several tonnes from an immobilised state, to overcome obstacles and to further increase manoeuvrability overall. The problem is solved by the support structure (100) having one or more guide rails (110) which are connected to the vehicle (500), and one or more guide rods (120) which are connected to at least one lifting unit (200, 201) and extend linearly in the guide rails (110) such that, in the lifted vehicle position, the guide rails (110), together with the vehicle (500), can be moved linearly relative to the surface and, in the lowered vehicle position, the guide rods (120), together with the at least one lifting unit (200, 201), can be moved linearly relative to the surface (400).
