The prototype electric camper van features a clever and well-appointed interior, but the eRV2 struggled to deliver even 100 miles of range.
While the chassis battery can transfer juice to the so-called house battery, the trip out to the campsite made me hesitant to sacrifice precious driving miles. Even sticking to 60 mph in the right lane, I still drained nearly half of the charge on the approximately 40-mile trip to the campsite. Ford quotes a 108-mile range for the high-roof E-Transit, and Winnebago says its testing revealed an average range of 120 miles.
Hoping to preserve the remaining driving range, I conserved energy by dimming the lights and lowering the heat, keeping a close eye on the charge monitor while cooking dinner on the eRV2's portable induction cooktop. Those small adjustments eked out enough juice for at least an extra day, but luckily the campground's power returned a few hours later and electrons began flowing back into both batteries through the E-Transit's 11.3-kW onboard charger.
