Thor Industries, parent company of RV manufacturer Airstream, is working on a plug-in hybrid electric platform for recreational vehicles.

When it comes to fuel consumption, few models consume more fuel than recreational vehicles . This is one segment where electrification could be a real game-changer for owners.

However, range is crucial here, for obvious reasons. And as you know, the heavier the model, the bigger the battery required to power it.

Standard range is around 250 km, but this figure rises to some 800 km thanks to a small internal-combustion range extender.
