The Pebble Flow, a semi-autonomous, all-electric travel trailer, was named the winner in the Automotive category for Fast Company’s 2024 Innovation by Design Awards.

The Innovation by Design Awards, which can be found in the Summer 2024 issue of Fast Company, honor the designers and businesses solving the most crucial problems of today and anticipating the pressing issues of tomorrow. The competition, now in its 13th year, features a range of blue-chip companies, emerging startups, and promising young talent. It is one of the most sought-after design awards in the industry.

The Pebble Flow was designed to remove the hassles that RVers have struggled with for decades and make RVing more accessible. Created by a team of industry leaders from Apple, Tesla, Zoox, BMW, and Volvo, the all-electric travel trailer introduces a new user experience via design and functionality.

Key features include:

  • Dual-motor Active Tow Assist System: Eliminates range anxiety for EVs and improves mileage for gas-powered vehicles.
  • Aerodynamic design & aluminum space frame: The exterior incorporates lightweight composite materials for enhanced durability, mileage and safety, mirroring the manufacturing of top-of-the-line cars.
  • Integrated 1 kW solar system with a 45 kWh LFP battery: Supports extended off-grid living without the need for propane.
  • Remote Control, Magic Hitch & InstaCamp: Using advanced computer vision and robotics software powered by NVIDIA DRIVE Orin computing power to simplify hitching, parking, maneuvering, and automating the camp setup process.
  • Mobile office with Starlink compatibility: Enables a work-from-anywhere lifestyle with a convertible Murphy bed.
  • App-enabled operations: Allows monitoring, control, and operation via a companion mobile app, providing a game-changing experience for RVers.


“RVing is about embracing the adventure and the freedom of the great outdoors,” said Bingrui Yang, CEO and founder of Pebble. “With the Pebble Flow, we’ve reimagined the RV experience to offer a modern, sustainable, and user-friendly journey. Being recognized by Fast Company is a true honor, and we’re thrilled to lead the RV industry into an electric future.”
