Ford E-Transit-based eRV2 prototype is ‘the future of RVing.’
van that Winnebago chose as the basis for the eRV2 prototype rides on the “cargo van high-roof” version of the E-Transit, the largest of the three E-Transit vans Ford offers. That van has a range of 108 miles from a 67-kWh battery, the shortest range of the three E-Transits, but it’s supplemented by a 900-watt rooftop solar array on the Winnebago eRV2. Plus, the high-roof model packs the most room inside of the Fords, with 6-feet-9-inches of standing room inside.
Winnebago said in a release that it is looking at range-extending options but clarified that a production version of the eRV2 would be all-electric, not a gas or diesel hybrid. “We are not ready to share the final chassis configuration but expect to announce that later this year,” a spokesperson said. “The electric vehicle marketplace is rapidly evolving, and there will be good opportunities for us to improve the eRV2 range for our launch with dealers.”
The interior of the similarly sized Winnebago Paseo we tested five years ago was snug, but worked well for two people.But while Ford seems to be a frontrunner for the Winnebago business, it’s not signed, sealed, and plugged in yet.
