New electric travel trailer moves closer to production

Aboard, a Southern California startup, says it is moving closer to production of an electric travel trailer designed to operate more independently of traditional campground hookups.

The trailer, currently in advanced prototype testing and validation, is an extended-range electric travel RV that combines power systems, towing controls and living functions into one integrated design.

According to a company press release, the trailer is intended to provide quieter operation, built-in energy capability for camping away from hookups, automated comfort systems and automotive-style construction methods.

The trailer is designed with high-precision stamped body and door systems similar to those used in automobile manufacturing. The company says it is emphasizing simplified operation and a towing experience more comparable to driving a modern vehicle.

Configurations are expected to start at $80,000.

The company plans a formal public unveiling May 29 at Outside Days in Denver, where attendees will be able to tour the trailer and learn more about available configurations.

Interest in trailers with larger battery systems and improved off-grid capability has grown as more RV owners seek flexibility beyond traditional campgrounds.

The manufacturer recently announced it completed an additional funding round that brings its total financing to $13 million as it continues preparing the trailer for production.
