e-Adventure sounds simple until an EV truck hits its limit. YouTuber Jace Sparks loves chasing sunsets past the mountains and falling asleep under a sky full of stars. Lately, the problem has been range. The places he wants to reach are often far from chargers, and most campgrounds still don’t make it easy for electric rigs. That’s where the Evotrex-PG5 comes in.
At the Evotrex facility in Los Angeles, Jace tours what feels like a serious answer to off-grid EV travel, since fewer than 25 percent of campsites in North America have RV electric hookups, and less than 2 percent of national park campsites do. He shares his experience in the video at the end of this post.
The Evotrex-PG5 gives off a high-quality feel right away. It’s designed for people who want comfort without giving up the ability to camp away from plug-in sites. The finish, lighting, and layout all point to the same idea: stay off-grid longer, and don’t feel like you’re roughing it.
Interior
Inside, the PG5 is set up for actual meals, not just snacks. Jace points out how quickly a small detail can matter, like wanting a good cup of coffee and having the setup to do it.
The main kitchen features:
- A two-burner induction stove
- A microwave that also air fries
- A large fridge plus a separate freezer
- A sink with a clean, modern look
The sleeping setup is a big part of the PG5’s appeal. It includes a residential queen-size bed, plus a second queen created when the table folds down. At night, a dimmable dial controls the LED lighting, and a huge skylight opens the ceiling view for stargazing. Most windows (other than the skylight) can open, so the camper still feels connected to the outdoors.
Jace gets excited about the bathroom, and this one lands. The shower area is roomy, helped by 6’5″ ceilings. It also uses an instant tankless water heater, so showers stay warm without waiting for a tank to recover. The toilet setup feels upgraded compared to many campers. There’s also a clothesline.
Exterior
Out back, the PG5’s patio does more than add hangout space. It extends the kitchen view and drops down to support rear loading, which is handy for bikes or kayaks, or just setting up a covered spot to sit.
It’s also built to leave pavement behind, with all-terrain tires, outdoor water hookup, and electrical outlets. Storage includes a pass-through tunnel, similar in spirit to the Rivian R1T’s gear tunnel, for long items like skis and other bulky gear.
Horizon power system: DC fast charging from a camper
The standout feature is what Evotrex calls the Horizon system. It’s a generator-powered energy setup that takes 20 gallons of unleaded gasoline and provides 225 kWh of usable energy. Evotrex positions it as the first “supercharger on wheels,” offering DC fast charging for an EV like a Tesla.
For Jace, who drives a Tesla Cybertruck, that’s the missing piece. A tow-behind camper that can help an EV get farther out, and stay out longer, changes what trips are possible.
Smart controls, smooth towing, and off-grid numbers
The PG5 runs on a tablet that docks inside the camper and wirelessly charges. It also adds convenience features like an automated awning and auto-leveling stabilizers. An air suspension system is meant to improve towing comfort, reducing rattles and bounce.
On the off-grid side, it includes a 60-gallon fresh water tank, plus 30 gallons each for gray and black water.
Jace also calls out Evotrex’s transparency, since the Evotrex website includes an off-grid calculator that shows how long someone can stay out based on conditions.
In total, the PG5 is said to offer 270+ kWh of usable battery life, with 1.5 kW solar panels helping recharge along the way.
Pricing, models, and pre-order date
Two versions were available for pre-order as of January 6th:
| Model | Price | What changes |
| Pioneer (base) | $120,000 | Includes Horizon system, power assist, and battery, but no patio |
| Atlas (premium) | $160,000 | Adds the rear patio setup |
Built for EV owners who want to go farther
Jace says his video isn’t sponsored; he just wanted to see if the PG5 could fix the off-grid problem that keeps EV trucks closer to chargers than they’d like. For EV owners who want quiet campsites, remote trailheads, and long stays outdoors, the Evotrex-PG5 is designed to make those trips feel possible again.
