Tesla, which changed the course of the industry with the electric cars it launched, showed up at the “2022 IdeenExpo” events held in Hannover, Germany. The company exhibited one of its newest technologies, the electric car range extender trailer, within the scope of the events. This trailer will be critical for electric cars.
The most important problem of electric cars is the range lengths. The batteries, which are not at the desired level at the moment, cause the vehicles to wait at the station for hours after traveling a few hundred kilometers. However, the developed range extender seems to prevent this problem. Because electric vehicle owners will use this trailer to benefit from solar energy and charge their cars.
Introducing Tesla’s range extender trailer that uses solar energy
The photo above shows the trailer, which is still in the prototype stage. The trailer, which has openable panels, seems to be used both when the vehicle is parked and on the move. Thus, the electric car will not need to search for a station. Because this trailer, which converts solar energy into electricity, can be used wherever the sun is present. By the way; Let’s not skip the Starlink internet equipment on the trailer. You will have those who remember; In a news we shared with you recently, we mentioned that Starlink has received a new authorization and that it can be used in all vehicles in motion with this authorization.
Although the trailer that Tesla showed offered a solution to the ‘range’ problem of electric cars, this solution is not very practical. Because to gain a range of a few hundred kilometers, attaching a semi-trailer to the back of the vehicle is a method that most drivers do not want to prefer. However, Tesla has shown that it is working on alternative solutions in this regard.
