Power and Mobility

Operating as a portable power station, the system facilitates extended off-grid stays and can even charge an electric vehicle overnight. Its powered twin axle and concealed front storage contribute to a futuristic, nautical aesthetic.

Architectural Aesthetics

Drawing deep inspiration from contemporary West Coast design, the interior boasts extensive glazing and skylights. A dramatic floor-to-ceiling opening rear panel blurs the boundary between indoor shelter and the outdoors.

Interior Layout

The layout incorporates crisp white walls, warm timber accents, and versatile free-standing furniture. Dual-side access doors provide convenient entry, including a direct pathway into the central bathroom.

Modern Amenities

Measuring 25 feet long and eight feet wide, the four-berth trailer features convertible front and rear queen-sized sleeping areas. Practical additions like an induction cooktop and climate control elevate the off-grid experience.

Smart Technology

Various configurations and power systems supporting 120V and 240V outlets are managed through a dedicated mobile application. The Aboard T4 is officially anticipated to begin shipping to eager customers soon.
