One thing I’ve written a fair amount about here is electric RVing. The good news? It’s definitely possible. If you’ve got money for a Tesla Model X and you can find a lighter camper to tow, it’s not a big deal. The same is largely true for electric trucks like the Ford F-150 Lightning or […]

I’ve written quite a few articles on here about electric RVing. Why? Because gas-powered RVing is EXPENSIVE. This is especially true for the gas prices we’ve seen in 2022 so far. But RVing presents some serious challenges for electric drivetrains. To push something like a Class A motorhome (the ones that look like a bus) […]

With more people remote-working than ever, the idea of hitting the road like Jack and never coming back (no more no more) sounds like a great option. After all, who doesn’t want to wake up to the views of Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon every morning? With portable Starlink internet now available, there’s almost no […]

Going completely off grid is tough, especially with an EV. You can go almost anywhere with the right gas or diesel-powered vehicle, and once you get there, you can use solar power for creature comforts, refrigeration, and even cooking. But, you’re still dependent on fossil fuel infrastructure and supply chains, so you’re not truly off […]

In this article, I’m going to talk about a new camper that might solve a very important problem for EV drivers, but first we must talk about what that problem is. The EV Towing Problem & Possible Answers One of the things that makes EVs work well is efficiency. Not only are their drivetrains more […]

In a previous article, we covered the Stella Vita experimental camper van. Unlike nearly every other camper on the face of the planet (this is the other exception I know of), the Stella Vita runs on sunlight. It doesn’t need to charge from the electrical grid, which still uses fossil fuels. It doesn’t need anything […]

A few weeks ago, Spanish-language website Motorpasión shared a really cool post showing us the Hyundia Staria Lounge Camper. While it’s not an EV (and thus wouldn’t normally be covered on CleanTechnica), it’s a very efficient vehicle that can normally carry a lot of passengers and/or cargo. Now, Hyundai has made a concept car showing […]

In several previous articles, I’ve covered the slow emergence of electric vans. If you’re laser-focused on the environment, electric vans are exciting because they’ll allow many commercial vehicles to go electric. Most work vans today run on gas or diesel, aren’t hybrid, and therefore get disgusting gas mileage in the city (where they mostly operate). […]
