Maximize the roof with solar panels, make an electric awning that has additional solar panels, make the battery at least 120kw, and use lighter materials throughout.
Come on lucky numbers, just a lottery jackpot away! I would love to drive one of these!
That’s almost perfect, more comfy bed and a little longer range maybe 200ish and they’ve got a winner…honestly I’d buy it as is
Install as much it can solar panels
Needs built-in solar panels and wind turbines. That vehicle has huge flat sides and a big roof that should have solar panels. And with today's compact wind turbines, it should have that option also.
should have solar on the roof to charge the vehicle. When the apocalypse happens this will be needed as their won't be gas or chargers. and it extends range.
Would LOVE a handicap friendly version !!! This would be just fantastic if interior hand rails or a wheel chair ramp access could be integrated !! THANK YOU
His definition of an almost queen size bed is laughable as I lay on my full sized bed in the back of my van…
And its only $500,000 and 8 months for delivery
For the price and for functionality it would need approx, 300 Miles.
I think that for EV RV we are not there yet. Not saying that is not a good idea, but for just 100 miles and then recharge is just not my cup of tea. When we have an EV RV that can go more than 400 miles range then you will have my attention.
solar!
By far, the #1 feature this should have would be rooftop solar panels to significantly extend the range. I feel like one should be able to travel at least 500 kilometres without having to make a stop, if necessary. The current range being given would mean a stop every 1.5 hours or so.
I'd like to see a roomy bathroom at the back of the van. Also a full size bed at the back of the van. Like the Serenity Leisure travel van 2020.
Imagine if Walter and Jesse had this
Great concept but feels rushed just to say we did it first. If the battery technology wasn’t there to get the sweet spot of at least 300 miles then wait until it’s ready for that time. Not everyone wants to stop every 100 miles to charge on their way to their next destination.
This is so great for the environment, no pollution. Oh wait, a lot of electricity comes from coal and nuclear power plants with nuclear waste. Oh well at least it looks good on the surface
Couldn’t they have big alternators charging the battery while you drive?
Can't wait for self sustaing vans, it will happen in my lifetime
Needs solar and more beds
100% this is a perfect type of application for an 800 Volt architecture. Or certainly a higher voltage to allow for the highest charging speeds as the pack grows bigger, say 130-150 kWh. Then you’ll really want rapid charging up in the 250 kW peak range. 600 or more volts would help you get there given the mix of fast chargers available out there in the world. One thing that’s horrible on this prototype is the charge port location. But since Ford moved the charge port to the front grill on the production version of their van then maybe Winnebago could adopt that much better spot so that they could allow for nose in charging on the relatively short cables out there in the world.
In a few years, I'm looking at becoming a Snowbird in Florida. I will only go electric and would require my EvRv to have at least 250 miles of range to make pit stops every 2 hours during my 6 months migration from Montreal to Florida. My hope is that, by that time, RV campgrounds will have at least a 220v hookup for a level 2 charger at each RV lot.
Off-roading is a must.
I RV, and use a wheelchair. You should do the Wheelchair accessible floorplan in the E-RV. One of my main problems on trips is when I need gas. I can use my electric lift to enter and exit the RV but it is very difficult to access the fuel filler and the Pump to pay. My Sprinter fills on the drivers side so to reach the pump the island prevents me from wheeling my chair next to the pump and full up. Electric Chargers tend to access from the front (very easy for me to use)
We like the real wood finishings and recycled elements 🙂
