Rollaway partnered with BrightDrop, an EV manufacturer owned by General Motors.
The zero emissions van is said to have an estimated range of 250 miles and comes with fast charging support for when a quick re-charge is needed.
According to the company blurb, the motorhome was “made for explorers who see travel differently and thrive on creating long-lasting memories”.
