Now comes the electric trailer from Airstream

Most trailers do not exude the coolness that many mountain bikers desire. The Airstream trailers are an exception. Manufactured since the 1930s, the aluminum travel trailers are an eye-catcher on the campsite and today they even come with electric drive to reduce the loss of range with electric towing vehicles. The concept trailer can also be decoupled from the car and maneuvered remotely.

Until now, caravans were relatively inert objects that were towed behind the car. The coolest of all caravans has always been the American Airstream, and this now comes in a new version with an integrated motor that drives itself to reduce the load on the towing vehicle - particularly interesting if the towing vehicle is also electrically powered. Put simply, it is a towable electric camper that can be powered by its own electric drivetrain. The impressive motorhome also has an 80-kWh battery pack and a 900-watt solar system on the roof - enabling self-sufficient living for up to two weeks. The battery charge status and energy flows can be monitored via a mobile application, which also offers the option of maneuvering the caravan remotely once it has been disconnected.
