Can You Tow a Caravan with an Electric Car? Towing a Bailey Discovery D4-2 with a Tesla TinTent 2021-05-30 | Andrew Ditton's YouTube Channel (He reviews the Bailey Discovery D4-2): youtube.com/user/andrewjditton Tesla's website: www.tesla.comBailey of Bristol website: www.baileyofbristol.co.uk Towing a caravan with an electric vehicle (EV): What you need to know• Cost per mile. Based on Tesla Supercharger costs and the predicted range when towing and driving solo, towing a 995kg caravan cost 12.4p per mile, compared to 5.2p per mile solo. Granted, my own diesel Vito is a completely different animal, but costs would be approximately 19p per mile when towing a similar caravan.• How much does it cost to charge an electric vehicle at a campsite? At the time of writing, The Caravan and Motorhome Club charge £8 for EV’s and £2 for hybrids. That cost is per charge.• How long does it take to charge an electric vehicle (EV) from a normal 3-pin domestic socket? Tesla Superchargers allow you to continue a journey within a matter of minutes but charging 40% of a Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD battery took 15 hours 40 minutes at 10A.• Can I charge an electric vehicle at a campsite? If no fast charge points are available, EV’s can be charged from a normal 240v 3-pin plug inside the caravan, with the Tesla menu allowing you to set the current. However, this can increase charge times dramatically.• Battery weight and a low centre of gravity often mean great towing manners.• Can I tow a family caravan with an electric vehicle? Each EV has an individual towing limit and this will dictate what can be towed. For example, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD had a towing limit of 1000kg.• Can I tow a caravan with an electric vehicle if I have a B licence? B licence holders (who passed their driving test after 1st January 1997) can tow a maximum combined weight of 3500kg. That’s the plated maximum weight of both vehicles. • A change of behaviour may be required until top-up points suit our towing needs. Don’t want to charge your car at the campsite? Replenishing your battery at a nearby supermarket after pitching the caravan may be possible, stocking up on essentials as you do so.
