Smart way to go on holiday

- BY SOPHIE FOSTER

Caravan holidays were once very popular before taking a dip and becoming unfashiona­ble – but Covid staycation­s and the rise of the motorhome have caused a renaissanc­e.

Now, the world’s most advanced caravan is set to make a splash among holidaymak­ers.

The new Pebble Flow EV boasts extremely comfortabl­e features like a full- sized shower – so you can say goodbye to cramming yourself into a tiny bathroom.

The caravan-style trailer home also has wraparound windows meaning you can take in the scenery as you drive.

The new Pebble Flow EV also pulls its own weight and can be charged through public stations, at home or through campsite sockets. There’s also a 1kw solar panel system that charges the caravan when it’s parked.

All that electricit­y will come in handy on holiday in a heatwave too as the camper has air conditioni­ng throughout.

One of the newfangled additions to the design lets you control your home through your iphone. A Pebble Flow app connects to cabin temperatur­es, lights, door locks and even to change driving modes.

And the makers say drivers can even tell the caravan to park itself into tight parking spaces.

There’s also has a “magic hitch” feature meaning the EV automatica­lly attaches itself to your truck or car.

The 25ft trailer has a Queensized bed, a flip down desk, fully equipped kitchen and a microwave. The Pebble Flow costs €100,000, or €111,000 if you want the Magic Pack that includes all the smart features. It’s expected to go on sale by the end of next year. pebblelife.com.
