America’s passion for mobile living and the lifestyle of independence has been given a fresh twist with the introduction of Lightship’s AE.1 Cosmos trailer, designed especially for the electric vehicle (EV) era. As the first American company exclusively devoted to producing electric trailers, Lightship is making waves with its groundbreaking mobile home.
The AE.1 Cosmos trailer is equipped with a massive 77 kWh battery, a first of its kind, which extends the driving range for EVs like the Cybertruck or Rivian R1T by up to 300 miles. Notably, it features a NACS port for seamless access to Tesla’s Superchargers and comes with an innovative solar roof that can generate an additional 15 kWh of power each day.
Inside, the trailer offers remarkable comfort and convenience, sleeping up to four people. It boasts an auto-leveling feature and includes an HVAC system, a full bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave, convection oven, and induction cooktop.
One of the most exciting features of this trailer is the TrekDrive vehicle assist technology, which provides “self-propulsion” and a smart hitch. This system allows the trailer to utilize additional power while climbing hills and to apply controlled braking on slopes, enhancing both performance and safety.
Further enhancing its appeal, the Lightship AE.1 Cosmos offers the CampQuiet system, enabling the HVAC and electric appliances to run for extended periods without the need for a noisy fuel generator, thanks to the strong battery and solar capabilities.
This debut model, the AE.1 Cosmos Edition, represents the pinnacle of luxury in mobile homes with an initial price tag of $250,000 before any federal tax credits. It comes with exclusive colors and a highly appointed interior. With only 50 units available for delivery starting in summer 2025, it’s a limited edition that caters to exclusivity.
For those seeking more budget-friendly options, Lightship plans to introduce the Atmos, Panos, and Terros trims in 2026, which will be available at roughly half the price of the AE.1 Cosmos.
Lightship’s AE.1 Cosmos trailer heralds a new era of innovation and luxury for those passionate about travel and sustainable living. With its cutting-edge technology and eco-friendly features, it promises to revolutionize the way we think about mobile homes.
