The shift toward electric power is evident in travel trailers, with Airstream's Basecamp Xe leading the charge. Building upon its predecessor, the Trade Wind, the 20-foot Basecamp Xe is designed to be self-sufficient, equipped with 600W of solar power and a 10.3-kWh lithium battery, allowing for prolonged off-grid capabilities. Although it starts at $76,900, it still retains a propane tank for emergencies. Airstream emphasizes its suitability for eco-conscious travelers, creating a viable option for extended road trips without needing to recharge frequently.
Cars, trucks and SUVs aren't the only things on the road that are shifting into all-electric configurations.
Airstream's new Basecamp Xe builds on its earlier electric trailer, the Trade Wind, designed for self-sufficiency.
The trailer features 600W of solar power and a 10.3-kWh lithium battery pack for increased off-grid capability.
Airstream VP Bryan Melton said, 'theoretically, if you're using those larger capacities very infrequently, you could be out there indefinitely.'
