Grounded’s new smart standing-room T1 can travel 150-miles on Civilized Cycles’ Semi-Trike.
DETROIT (Dec. 2, 2024)---Mobility innovation startup Grounded today announced the launch of the Grounded T1, a smart all-electric standing-room trailer powered entirely by electric tricycle.
Grounded will begin producing its first T1s in Spring 2025, and is currently taking pre-orders. The company partnered with Civilized Cycles to create a first-of-its-kind smart trailer and trike system.
“Demand for the outdoors continues to increase, and the T1 offers a compelling mix of comfort, sustainability, and flexibility,” said Grounded CEO Sam Shapiro. “By combining Civilized Cycles’ platform with our fast-track approach to interior builds, we’re able to quickly launch a compact, beautiful adventure system to meet the moment. Fully integrated electronics between the electric trike and the RV interior, managed through the Grounded+ app, provide a smart experience and give a detailed view of the trike range, how much energy each appliance is using and the ability to remotely control all aspects of the living space.”
Key Features of the T1
The T1 is built on Civilized Cycles’ Semi-Trike platform, a bicycle-class light electric vehicle that combines the cargo capacity of a van and the carbon footprint of an e-bike. The current generation of the Semi-Trike offers a patented self-adjusting air suspension that allows for superior safety, total payload, speed and driver comfort.
The base T1 includes Starlink for high speed internet anywhere you go, storage space, a lounge/seating area that quickly converts to a full bed, and kitchenette, with options for a dry-flush toilet and exterior shower.
Both the Semi-Trike and living systems of the T1 are fully powered by electricity, and aided in part by 500-Watt solar capacity.
The Grounded+ App connects the company’s proprietary software to all of the electronics used, allowing owners to view their own energy usage patterns and optimization possibilities, turn appliances on and off remotely, see real-time battery, range and water levels, and diagnose potential issues.
The interior of the T1 is modern, durable, and bright, and inspired by contemporary Nordic outdoor gear.

I also like the idea of managing energy usage through the Grounded+ app. This intelligent experience not only improves impostor juego convenience, but also helps me better plan travel routes and ensure that I will not encounter power shortage problems during the trip.
The price mentioned in the article ($30,000) isn’t exactly cheap, but considering its features and design, I feel it’s a worthy investment. I can't wait to see how the volume shader test T1 performs in actual use!
I am so excited about this article about the Grounded T1 Smart All-Electric Trailer and Trike System! As someone who loves the outdoors, I was very interested in this innovative product that combines technology with AIC tool sustainability.
I’ve worked on promoting innovative mobility products before, and one thing I found really effective was using SEO strategies to make sure these kinds of groundbreaking launches get noticed online. I’ve experimented with optimizing product pages, crafting content around key features, and analyzing search trends, and it consistently helped draw in the right audience. From my experience, combining authentic storytelling about the technology—like your all-electric trailer and trike system—with smart SEO can really amplify reach and get more people excited about the innovation!
The T1 experience is all about optimization. You have 150 miles of range and a finite amount of solar energy. To succeed, you have to be constantly checking the Grounded+ app, monitoring how much energy your Starlink or kitchenette is using, and planning your route based on power levels.
This high-stakes resource management is the exact core of FNaF. In the game, you are confined to a small "living space" (the security office) with a very limited power supply. Just as a T1 owner must decide whether to run the shower or save energy for the next 20 miles, a player in FNaF must decide whether to check the cameras or save power to keep the doors shut. If the power hits 0% in the T1, you're stranded; if it hits 0% at Freddy’s, you’re jumpscared.

This is a really exciting step forward for sustainable travel. A smart, all-electric trailer and trike system shows how innovation is reshaping the outdoor and RV experience for the better. Developments like this could make road trips and stays at parks in Midland Texas even more appealing for travelers who value efficiency and eco-friendly options. Great insight into what’s coming next!
This launch is an exciting step forward for sustainable travel. The introduction of the smart all-electric trailer and trike system provides innovative solutions for eco-friendly adventures. Enthusiasts looking for new experiences will appreciate how technology is shaping the future of travel. It would be interesting to see how Bitlife could incorporate similar innovation in its gameplay, making life simulation even more diverse and realistic for its players.
Want to study in UK without IELTS? It often depends on your background. If you studied in English for several years, some universities may accept an MOI letter or other evidence instead of IELTS. A few also offer a “pre-sessional English” route before the main course. When searching <a href="https://ardentoverseas.com/study-in-uk-without-ielts/">no ielts required universities in uk</a> match your profile with each university’s current English requirement.
That’s an impressive leap: the new trailer + trike system from Grounded RVs and Civilized Cycles really re-imagines mobile living by Poly Track pairing an electric trike base with a fully livable, smart trailer setup.
