The 2027 Pebble Flow introduces solar charging capabilities to its existing electric camping design. Introduced in 2025, the streamlined trailer uses a 45 kWh LFP battery pack. For the 2027 model year, Pebble states that up to 4 kW of solar panels can recharge this battery, which they claim should generate more electricity than an average day of camping requires. Earlier versions offered an optional 1.1 kWh roof panel, while the new kit adds another 2 kWh using four portable panels.

The trailer’s LFP battery is bidirectional with an output capacity of up to 12 kW, allowing it to charge connected EVs if needed. Charging speeds include AC at up to 6.6 kW and DC fast charging that moves the vehicle from 0 to 80 percent in less than an hour according to Pebble. The in-wheel electric motors enable regenerative braking to recapture up to 42 kW, and a new boost setting for 2027 provides 54 hp (40 kW) of assistance instead of just easing towing resistance.

Automation features are controlled by an updated operating system using an onboard Nvidia Orin processor and four surround cameras. These systems allow the Flow to see the hitch ball and couple itself automatically, while an iPad app lets users remotely maneuver the trailer for parking or activate the black water tank dumping process. Due to this technology, the Magic Pack starts at $159,000, with the Founders Edition priced at $189,000.
