Anker-backed hybrid RV startup Evotrex comes out of stealth

Evotrex, a new startup backed by Anker and other investors, is emerging from stealth with a hybrid RV travel trailer that combines an onboard battery pack with an integrated gas engine. This design allows the gas engine to recharge the battery, extending the trailer’s range beyond what a full battery charge alone could provide. Targeting a younger, more adventurous customer base, Evotrex aims to support extended off-grid living for activities like skiing, hunting, and fishing, where users need reliable power for several days away from traditional campsites. The company claims its hybrid system is quieter and more efficient than typical gas generators and even utilizes excess engine heat to warm the cabin. Co-founded by former Anker product managers Alex Xiao and Stella Qin, Evotrex spent seven months researching the RV market before developing its product. The startup plans to debut its RV at the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show and expects to ship the first trailers by the end of that year. Evotrex has raised $16 million in
