- Evotrex
Participated · Series A · Jun 2026
Evotrex develops hybrid extended-range electric travel trailers designed to enable extended off-grid living. Its first model, the PG5, is an EREV with a battery pack recharged by an onboard gas engine, and the company revealed a functional version at CES after emerging from stealth. The PG5’s Premium trim is priced around $160,000, and Evotrex says 90% of its existing order book is for that fully loaded trim. The company plans to target roughly 1,000 units annually once production ramps and will manufacture in China with final assembly in California. Evotrex has prioritized service capability early—hiring its first service employee six months ago and bringing on its first sales hire more recently—as it spends the next 10–12 months on durability testing. The startup has raised $46 million to date and is using the new capital to complete testing, finalize manufacturing plans, and prepare for deliveries.
