Towing with electric vehicles

The world of camping has seen a revolution with the introduction of the MINK-E camper. This innovative camper is not just a place to rest your head at night; it's a statement about embracing the future of travel. Let's dive into the world of MINK-E and discover how electric vehicles (EVs) are making it easier than ever to embark on an adventurous journey.

Lightweight and Efficient: Weighing in at just over 500 kg, the MINK-E stands out as the lightest camper in the MINK lineup. But more importantly it is low and aerodynamic. This lightweight and streamlined design doesn't just make it easier to tow; it also means you can manually maneuver it into the perfect parking spot by pulling its handles. Talk about convenience!

Fully Electric: In line with the global shift towards sustainability, the MINK-E is fully electric. From its electric heater to keep you warm on chilly nights to its electric hub, this camper is all about eco-friendly adventures. 

Durable and recyclable: The MINKs are durable and tough so they last for a long time. However, when the cycle comes to an end it is equally important to be able to re-use the materials. The MINK-E, and its siblings, are made from recycled and recyclable materials, with at least 80% being recyclable. 

The MINK-E isn't just about looks (though it's quite the looker!). Its low roofline and streamlined shape ensures it fits snugly behind the towing vehicle, dropping right into the airflow to allow air to continuously from vehicle over the MINK. This makes it aerodynamically efficient and thus even easier to tow. This design not only improves fuel efficiency but also ensures a smoother ride.
