Dethleffs unveils folding caravan C-Fold for electric vehicles

Dethleffs presented the C-Fold foldable caravan concept at the CMT show in Stuttgart. For transport, it folds down to a height of 1.65 meters and a width of 1.9 meters to improve aerodynamics. The interior features a modular design with a compact kitchen, a toilet that extends from the floor, and a front seating area that retracts. The current prototype weighs 775 kg, with a target of 600 kg for series production.

The Dethleffs C-Fold caravan prototype for electric towing vehicles debuted at the CMT 2026 show in Stuttgart. Its design lowers the body for travel to a height of 1.65m and width of 1.9m to reduce drag, then raises it electrically at the destination to create a full-height interior. The prototype weighs around 775 kg, with a target of 600 kg for a potential production version.

At the CMT show in Stuttgart, Dethleffs presented the C.Fold concept, a travel trailer with an unusually flat roof. The 5.5-meter-long, 775-kg trailer is aimed at electric car owners, as its lowered profile reduces aerodynamic drag to save battery charge. At the push of a button, the roof rises, doubling the interior volume.

At the CMT show in Stuttgart, Dethleffs presented the C.Fold concept caravan with a split-shell body. The aluminum-honeycomb composite construction weighs 775 kg and folds down to a 1.65 m height for improved aerodynamics. The company's analysis suggests it could add up to 100 km of range to an electric tow vehicle compared to a traditional trailer.

German manufacturer Dethleffs has presented the c.fold, a foldable travel trailer concept designed for electric vehicles. When folded, the caravan is 1.65 meters high and under 5.45 meters long, reducing air drag and potentially adding up to 100 km of range to the tow car, according to the company. The design features an independent air suspension with self-leveling, integrated solar panels, and a transformable bathroom, with a curb weight of 775 kg.

The Dethleffs c.fold folding caravan study was presented at the CMT 2026 show, designed to increase the range of electric tow vehicles. In its folded state, the caravan is 1.6 m high and 1.9 m wide to improve aerodynamics. It features an electrically lowering roof, air suspension, integrated solar panels, and a weight under 780 kg.

When folded, the trailer measures 1.65 m in height and 1.9 m in width to reduce aerodynamic drag. The design features an electric transformation system, air suspension with leveling and integrated scales, as well as solar panels and lithium batteries. The trailer's total weight is 775 kg.
