Winnebago investing heavily in Electric powertrains

Yeah, those two "prototypes" have been out and about for a year or so, but amazingly enough there are no others, even after a year. Maybe they aren't working out quite as well as planned? Perhaps not vaporware, but pretty darned scarce.

And I didn't say it wasn't possible that there will be electric RV's, I said that it's going to be several years before they become really feasible, and affordable. If a relatively small Tesla car costs between $50,000-$100,000, imagine what an RV would cost.

Tesla’s start online at just under 40,000 or at a showroom at 35500 for special order. They can get up to north of 125,000 presently for a model x and the new model S Plaid is expected to be closer to 130,000.

I would think you are right though. It’ll be a hefty sticker price. But then again lots of people have that kinda coin. Gas or diesel motorhomes are stinky noisy slow and gutless. And if they are use to driving electric already it would be an easy transition.
