The Polydrops P21X is a limited-edition camping trailer developed as an off-road variant of the company's P21 platform. The trailer retains the angular, aerodynamic body shape of the original model while incorporating upgrades for off-grid use and rough terrain. Ground clearance increases to 15 inches through the addition of all-terrain tires and an independent axle-less suspension system. A tapered rear profile helps maintain aerodynamic efficiency, while the raised body improves capability beyond paved roads. Designed to remain compatible with electric vehicles, the trailer adds off-road functionality without a substantial increase in towing weight.
A rooftop solar array developed with Aptera Motors delivers 1,300 watts of generating capacity and works alongside a standard 5 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack, with an optional 10 kWh configuration available. The interior provides standing room of approximately six feet and accommodates up to four occupants. A convertible rear dinette transforms into the primary bed, while a front seating area converts into a second sleeping space.
