CES 2024: An Inside Tour of the Pebble Flow
Back in October, Pebble unveiled its all-electric flagship trailer: the Pebble Flow. Featuring an active propulsion assist system and renewable energy capacity, we got the opportunity to check it out at the Pebble booth at CES 2024. Let’s take a closer look.
futurizing camping
The Pebble Flow definitely turns heads and it screams modernernlistic simplicity both inside and out. With a length of 25 feet and height of 8’8, I can see the Pebble Flow comfortably housing a couple or small family for a camping trip. When you walk into the RV, you’re immediately greeted with a clean white interior with woodsy accents and some dark tones. At 150 square feet of space inside, the Pebble Flow feels deceptively roomy. Once you get to know it better, you appreciate its function-first design and how integrated it is. The panoramic windows feel inviting and open out from the chef’s kitchen. There’s a removable indoor/outdoor induction range, a full-size fridge, and also a microwave oven. The faucet even opens out through the windows so if you’re cooking outside and need to fill up a pot or need water, there’s easy access.
While small in size, the Pebble Flow’s bathroom is also equally thoughtful. The shower glass (and exterior panoramic windows facing the kitchen) can be controlled to adjust for privacy with the touch of a button. There’s LED lighting and plenty of storage here for multiple people. Other notable features include the soft-touch cabinetry across the entire RV, a Scandinavian looking living room that’s multifunctional as well (turns into a full size bed), and even the dog bowls that are cleverly tucked away at the entryway.
Of course, the Pebble Flow is designed for nomads and that’s the highlight of the bedroom. Featuring a Queen size murphy bed, the bed can be converted to a desk easily when not in use. There’s USB-C outlets and Starlink connectivity for internet to keep the camper in touch with the civilized world.

staying connected
The Pebble Flow can be controlled through its app and tablet that is conveniently placed at the entryway of the RV. Control everything from lighting, windows, as well as change modes and more all through the app. Owners can even control the Pebble Flow through the app to position and park the RV. Pebble says it will continue to modernize the Pebble Flow through OTA updates.
plenty of Smarts
There’s a ton of features the Pebble Flow can do, including a camp mode called InstaCamp where the Pebble Flow can adjust its lights, temperature and pitch the awning so that users don’t have to manually set up. It is even able to hitch itself through sensors.
energy-oriented
The Pebble Flow houses a 45 kWH LFP battery, with Pebble saying users can stay off-grid for up to 7 days. There’s also integrated solar to help the Pebble Flow sustain itself. Finally, the Pebble Flow includes AC/DC charging through a 240V output so you can charge conveniently on the go. It even has an emergency energy backup in case homeowners are faced with an outage or need backup.
Using the Pebble Flow’s dual-motor Active Propulsion Assist System, you can tow the Pebble Flow with a gas or EV vehicle so long as your vehicle has a towing capacity of 6,200 lbs. This is where the Pebble Flow shines as it isn’t a dead weight trailer that needs to be lugged around. The Flow takes a lot of the burden off of the car towing it. Our first look at the Pebble Flow was a short one, but we’re excited to see these on the road. Preorders are available for the Pebble Flow at a starting price of $109,000. They are expected to ship by the end of 2024.
