Just saw a story about someone with a tesla model 3 who is towing one of these same campers across Australia, it looks a good choice for long distance travel as it is light weight and low profile and low drag. When doing long distance the drag of taller campers or caravans would badly affect the fuel consumption or EV range. It is a bit surprising how little thought is given to the aerodynamics of what people tow behind their cars. Car manufacturers goto enormous trouble to make their cars as streamlined as possible but many caravans are quite un aerodynamic but i suppose caravans are usually parked so the try to maximise utility over transportability. They modified the camper to lower the drag even more by putting covers on the wheel arches, a bottom cover plate a front aero cover and possibly other changes. They also put in a battery pack, air conditioner and solar panels. Good luck with your project.

I think I saw an interview with the guy towing the trailer around Australia, I’m towing with a Ranger so hardly even notice it attached.
@@SalandMans makes sense the ranger would have a much bigger draft than a Tesla m3.
