Curing Range Anxiety: Evotrex-PG5 Turns Your Trailer Into a High-Capacity Power Bank
The Evotrex-PG5 RV solves electric truck range loss by acting as a 43kWh power bank and range extender. Discover the future of sustainable off-grid camping.
What if the very thing you're towing actually powered your truck instead of just draining it? It's a question that has long plagued electric truck owners who watch their range evaporate the moment a trailer is hitched. California-based startup Evotrex has answered this with the Evotrex-PG5, an RV designed to act as a massive range extender.
The Evotrex-PG5 Unified Energy System Explained
According to reports from The Verge, the Evotrex-PG5 features what the company calls a 'unified energy system.' Unlike traditional trailers that rely on the towing vehicle for power, this RV can pump electrons back into the truck's battery, effectively offsetting the aerodynamic and weight penalties of towing.
- Battery Capacity: A massive 43kWh lithium-phosphate (LFP) unit
- Solar Power: Integrated 1.5kW rooftop solar array
- Range Extender: The Horizon gas-powered onboard generator for emergency backup
Hybrid Reliability for Off-Grid Adventures
While the inclusion of a gas generator might stir debate among EV purists, Evotrex argues it's a necessary bridge for long-haul camping. The combination of solar, battery storage, and the generator ensures that even in the most remote locations, the vehicle and the living space never run dry. It's not just a camper; it's a mobile energy ecosystem.
