EarthCruiser says it has seen the shift to EVs coming for years. The company\u2019s founder, Lance Gillies, says: <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\" readability=\"11\">\n<p>We have been keenly following the evolution of EV vehicles and have been waiting until the time is right and the time is now. We are a company that loves to discover, innovate, and test, over and over until we get it right. Our deep expertise in building world-renowned expedition vehicles makes it easier for us to roll into electric platforms compared to competitors.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>To keep up with the trend, the company says it\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/earthcruiser.com\/earthcruiser-announces-expansion-into-overlanding-ev-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">expanding into overlanding products<\/a> for electric vehicles, in particular trucks.<\/p>\n<p>EarthCruiser says with a \u201csmooth ride, breathtaking power, and unbelievable off-road capabilities,\u201d EVs open new doors in the overlapping market. From what you can see, the camper will feature a full pop-up expanding roof design, providing plenty of living space.<\/p>\n<p>It also appears to include solar panels, which can help charge your electric truck on the go and off the grid. EarthCruise is working with \u201ckey domestic automotive manufacturers\u201d as it progresses with the design.<\/p>\n<p>The company is only releasing a teaser for the slide-in camper at the moment, with more details expected this year. However, they are working with potential buyers to find the right accessory for them as part of their fully refundable $100 deposit program. We\u2019ll keep you updated when we hear more.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-electrek-s-take\">Electrek\u2019s Take<\/h2>\n<p>The idea of a removable camper for electric trucks is not necessarily new, but seeing brands transition their businesses for the EV era is something to watch unfold. <\/p>\n<p>Several companies have designed <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/12\/16\/tesla-cybertruck-camper-option\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bed-embedded campers for the Tesla Cybertruck<\/a>, like Space Campers\u2019 $24,000 option with a toilet, bed, and kitchen included. Or, Cyberlander, which is creating one to fit flush with the Cybertruck, thereby enhancing efficiency and reducing drag. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?quality=82&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"electric-trucks-camper-1\" class=\"wp-image-277968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg 1400w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=150,75 150w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=300,150 300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=768,384 768w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=1024,512 1024w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=350,175 350w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=140,70 140w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/01\/electric-trucks-camper-1.jpeg?resize=290,145 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">LOKI Basecamp \u2013 Rivian Edition (Source: LOKI Expedition)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In addition, Loki Expedition has launched its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lokiexpedition.com\/rivian-edition-pre-order\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Basecamp \u2013 Rivian edition<\/a>, specifically designed to fit the R1T. <\/p>\n<p>With several new electric trucks set to hit the market, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2023\/01\/05\/ram-trucks-reveals-ram-revolution-concept-its-first-electric-truck\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RAM Revolution<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/guides\/tesla-cybertruck\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tesla Cybertruck<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/guides\/chevy-silverado-ev\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Silverado EV<\/a>, to name a few, removable campers like this could be game-changing for the explorers out there.
