EV9 range with a trailer
A trailer adds weight, but at highway speed the bigger cost is aerodynamic drag from its flat front. A low, light utility or boat trailer costs less range than a tall travel trailer. Published tests of electric trucks towing campers commonly land between 40% and 60% of rated range, which is the band below.
| Version | Rated | Light trailer (60%) | Typical (50%) | Heavy or tall (40%) | Typical at 0°C |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wind RWD | 491 km | 295 km | 246 km | 196 km | 214 km |
| Land AWD | 455 km | 273 km | 228 km | 182 km | 198 km |
| Land AWD GT-Line | 451 km | 271 km | 226 km | 180 km | 196 km |
| GT | 418 km | 251 km | 209 km | 167 km | 182 km |
| Light RWD | 370 km | 222 km | 185 km | 148 km | 161 km |
Plan charging stops around the heavy-trailer column for camping trips, and check that chargers on your route have pull-through stalls, or plan to unhitch.
