Dethleffs unveils c.fold folding caravan for electric cars

German manufacturer Dethleffs has presented the c.fold concept, a folding caravan designed to be towed by electric vehicles. While driving, the trailer's height is reduced to 1.65 meters, lowering aerodynamic drag and, according to simulations, increasing the EV's range by up to 100 kilometers. The 775 kg concept features a modular interior, a pop-up bathroom, and storage space for e-bikes.
