I read on the web this morning that Dethleffs have unveiled the first Solar Powered Motorhome! Tesla involvement is significant. On an Iveco chassis and with 334 sq ft of SP , it's range is about 100miles with a 107hp motor.  It has several battery options. I wonder if one will be at the show?

    Thanks EJB. If it has a range of 100 miles then it will take 4 charges for me to see my daughter and grand kids in Scotland! mmmm!

    I don't think I'll be rushing out to get one just yet.
