that's impressive. As an overlander, instead of towing a camper you could tow a generator!

W/ only 200mi range you're going to need to tow that generator to get anywhere interesting.

no doubt plan trips accordingly. They say 30 min. charge to 80%..what kind of power do you need to generate that Stephen? Watching the vimeo video, this thing does it absolutely all.... on their website base price. $33k for cargo vans, Im intrigued

Tesla uses a ~80kWh pack in their model 3. So assuming similar, 80%(64kWh) / 30min(0.5hr) = 128kW(~170hp).

Funny shit right there.

Neat looking rig.

How is anything green if it requires a fossil fuel powered charging source :shrug:

I'm allow to talk smack. I've designed and driven more electric vehicles than darn near everyone up until just a couple years ago. Over the last 21yrs I've been head designer for a gazillion watts of solar controllers too.

Electrics and renewables are the future. But in getting there you have to break a few eggs to make the omlettes. They have to use fossil fuels until they build out the infrastructure.

EVs make a TON of sense for commuters. Not so much for ADV or camping where the whole point is to go far from the grid.
