Ars Technica reports that the Pebble Flow, an all-electric travel trailer introduced in 2025, is getting a 2027 update with a larger solar array and new automated features.

The 2027 Flow is built on a 45 kWh LFP battery pack that can be recharged by up to 4 kW of solar panels. That includes a roof panel and four portable panels, which Pebble says should produce more power than you use in a typical camping day. The battery is bidirectional with up to 12 kW output, enough to charge an EV in a pinch.

AC charging maxes out at 6.6 kW, and DC fast charging can go from 0 to 80 percent in less than an hour, according to Pebble. The trailer also captures energy through regenerative braking, recapturing up to 42 kW via in-wheel electric motors that assist while towing. A new boost setting for 2027 provides 54 hp (40 kW) of assistance, rather than just reducing drag.

Automation for the campsite

An onboard Nvidia Orin processor and four surround cameras enable several automated functions. The Flow can see its hitch ball and couple itself. An iPad app lets you maneuver it remotely to park at a chosen site. You can even start the black water tank dumping process from the app.

Price and availability

All that technology comes at a premium. The 2027 Pebble Flow starts at $159,000 for the Magic Pack and $189,000 for the Founders Edition. Ars Technica notes this is not a budget-level travel trailer.
