Sweet! And very clever solutions to improve aerodynamics, range, and powering the RV when camping. I take it that you're thinking of getting an F-150 Lighting or a Rivian to tow it, Laycee! I just hope they eventually make a smaller EV version, about the size of a TAB 320 S, just big enough for two.
I agree, Mark. Yes, it sounds like they will be making multiple sizes and this is the halo version. I'm excited to see how the brand grows and expands its lineup. I have a Rivian R1T Max Pack on order which will be the perfect vehicle to tow the L1 :) Here is a video with the exact specifications: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CLO5UThc8GQ.html Thanks for watching Mark!
This is not a 4 season RV as stated by the CEO during the tour. This is a prototype. Highly detailed specifications will arrive next year before production begins.
We aren't particularly concerned with any elements of a prototype because we know there will be changes based on durability testing of the pre-production fleet. -Producer Tim
Utilization of vertical space is the function of cabinets. The bags hold items and can be stowed up high, utilizing vertical space. The items allocated to the bags will differ from upper cabinets, but the result is stowage capability.
Do they have plans to replace the glass with ALON? I think this change will definitely lighten the weight as transparent aluminum is lighter than glass.
We have only experienced this prototype and are not versed on materials finality for next year's production models. Thank you for watching and commenting. -Producer Tim
To all who buy this beautiful hunk, just consider the amount of prayer and good luck involved to drive up mountains or off-road, basically anywhere in blm, kind of what campers were solely intended to do. EIther way still a very cool design
@@MissGoElectric I think a more compact off roading version would be beneficial to expand the market. I look forward to seeing the advancements made within this technology in the new age. It's refreshing to see such innovation.
I am really interested in this for its evolution This first model is a little to generic and cold looking interior and im past the age where i want to turn a sofa into a bed every night. I think once they make this larger and more "homey" inside it will appeal better. but LOVE the concept and the exterior. I am curious how it handles privacy......
In this interview the electrochromic window feature was revealed. At the press of a button, all windows become opaque. Subscribe to our channel for more coverage of other electric RVs very soon. -Producer Tim
Perhaps there will be. In the description to this video you will find links to a follow up video which we have filmed. We will keep that up next time we report on this. We really like bikes, too! ebikes.missgoelectric.com -Producer Tim
@@leomajor88 nothing to do with that. The British army found that if the tow vehicle loses traction while turning but the trailer maintained traction it would push the tow vehicle over , it was with 101 forward controls and Sankey trailers I think
Have about a small all in one washer and dyer? Different color options for the sofa etc? A option to do a wall mount tv? Partner up with tesla and include the starlink for those that preorder maybe? Visuals on the 6person layout? Thanks in advance
Not going to work as designed unless you want to be too close to nature's flying bugs the door needs to be configured differently, as well as the rear awning and windows.
How long until Rich Rebuilds buys a 1990's pop-up camper and puts some salvaged batteries and an electric motor in it? 😂 Lightship might even be worth it for non-EV trucks. Diesel isn't free, and towing a camper sucks down a lot more fuel. Folks already pay $80k for a nice travel trailer and over $100k for a diesel motorcoach. Lightship has the utility of being a power station at home unlike those other RV, which at best are a backyard bunkhouse you power from your home, and at worst, leak through the A/C hole in the roof!
We will definitely be using ours as a source of home energy. How awesome would it be to capture 7-10kWh per day from the sun and have backup power whenever the grid goes down? We love the value proposition and the portability. Most folks install those systems into their homes and they have to buy+install again when they move to a new home.
It does have storage. Ben talked about it in this video. Most of it is tucked under the front bed and can be accessed outside in an area toward the front/tongue.
We also produced and published a highly detailed feature video on the Pebble. Pebble is smaller with lower battery capacity and it does not offer the aerodynamic efficiency of the L1 because it does not compress vertically. Pebble offers dramatically different interior aesthetic and layout. Pebble touts remote control and automated hitch docking and a lower starting price.
@@MissGoElectric Not a proclamation, just fact! Add a tow vehicle and what do you have? An unaffordable "Lightship Enterprise" Get real, no normal middle class Joe can afford the tow vehicle let alone a tow behind science fiction trailer. Only the elites can own this. But that's okay because only a few will be made once the start up goes belly up!
Just another EV grift. It's basically a RV with batteries and solar panels that needs to be towed. Nothing original or innovative here plus overpriced.
So far, no company has brought a zero-range-penalty travel trailer to market. We look forward to several options coming over the next few years from a number of manufacturers. Thanks for watching and commenting. -Producer Tim
I disagree. An RV with this much generation capability in a sunny state like Florida could actually make some serious dents in your electric bill; not to mention being an excellent source of backup power. The tricky bit is to be far enough away from the coast to not immediately get flooded in the event of a hurricane...
Worse than an RV, imho. No bedroom. I didn't see any storage for hanging clothes. And, can't use it while on the road......as far as rest stops. Can't get anything from the fridge or use the restroom. It's a good idea. But, still needs a LOT of work. I DO LOVE the windows though!
@davidmalkowski7850 Actually, I bought my moterhome and added solar power for round the year use (I live in it.) for MUCH less cost and much more flexibility.
