Overland trailer that is EV friendly?

[Derek Roberts]

While I have done some searches already, I’m going to post this here anyway: I’ve been looking at a number of off-road trailers. All of the ones I have looked at are not made specifically for an EV and are heavy. Are you aware of any off-road trailer that is made for EV trucks? Looking for something that is lightweight and solar charging.

Thank you.

Interesting topic, just found this one: https://www.greencarreports.com/new...st-charges-evs-with-75-kwh-of-extra-batteries

But it's not offroad. Perhaps a good starting point??

That thing would get destroyed if taken off road

Why not just get something that is under 1500lbs (which there are options) and gut it and perhaps rebuild with carbon fiber or other lighter materials?

Weight is your enemy

I think we are still a good 3-5 years out from seeing more EV’s getting used for legit overlanding. Range security is just not there. The moment you hook on anything to your EV truck right now, that moderate range is going to tank. And seeing there isn’t charging stations at most trail heads yet, or means to charge while in the field, that will keep people using combustion engines till.

Agree, weight is going to butcher your range.
