KZ Recreational Vehicles Debuts Lightweight, Sustainable New Sonic X Concept

KZ Recreational Vehicles has recently announced its new "Sonic X" model with a focus on sustainability and efficiency.
Currently in prototype form, the Sonic X features 1,000 watts worth of solar panels on the roof that charge the trailer's nine on-board lithium-ion batteries. Additionally, the Sonic X has what's referred to as a Secondary Infinite Water System with a heavy-duty water pump, a 25-foot hose and an integrated filtration system, enabling it to pull water from freshwater sources like a stream, a river or a lake. Altogether, the system can store up to 100 gallons of water, which is an impressive figure. In the interests of heat and UV ray regulation, the Sonic X uses "deep tinted" frameless windows with UV light protection and offers Chroma-coated window shades. Additional amenities include full LED lighting inside and out, two efficient fans and two 20-lb liquid propane tanks with automatic changeover.
The Sonic X's exterior is made of carbon fiber, which makes it both extremely durable and extremely lightweight -- beneficial when it comes to both maneuverability and the fuel efficiency of your tow vehicle. Underpinning the Sonic X is a rugged, off-road oriented design that includes Torsion axles, 30-in off-road tires, a skid plate, power stabilizer jacks, a triple-tube bumper with 360-degree nerf bars offering added protection, a back-up camera, four LED light bars and a variety of accessories, such as an exterior entertainment system, a kayak rack and an integrated bike rack for up to four bikes.
Inside, the Sonic X offers a murphy bed, a custom "butcher block" dining table, a refrigerator offering 7.0 cu ft. of storage, a safe, several storage areas and multiple power outlets for plugging in or charging a variety of devices.
