There’s something magnetic about a company that doesn’t just go off-grid, it redefines what the grid even means. Evotrex just dropped its stealth cover and rolled into daylight with a $16M Pre-A led by Xstar Capital, joined by Unity Ventures, Kylinhall Partners, Vision Plus Capital, and the founders of Anker Innovations, including Steven Yang. That’s not just capital, it’s a cosign from the people who made portable power part of modern life.
Evotrex is headquartered in LA with engineering roots in China, building something the RV world didn’t see coming: intelligent, power-generating trailers that don’t wait for the plug. The design fuses a battery system with a gas generator that recharges itself, powers onboard electronics, and even sends energy back to an electric tow vehicle. It skips charging stops, stretches range, and recycles waste heat to warm the cabin. The result isn’t a camper, it’s an independent ecosystem on wheels.
CEO & Founder Alex Xiao, a decade-long Anker veteran, knows how to take hardware from concept to millions of hands. Co-founder & Chief Brand Officer Stella Qin brings van-life credentials and a deep understanding of what true freedom looks like on the open road. COO Jack Zhan spent 20+ years mastering global supply chains at Lenovo, IBM & Anker, while CTO Bruce Yang carries decades of EV R&D experience from Geely Group. CMO Ivan Wang, an early Tesla & Rivian adopter, brings the driver’s seat insight on what real EV adventuring demands. Together, they’re 40 people split between California and China, tight, focused, and fully charged.
This $16M round fuels engineering expansion, product scaling, and manufacturing prep for their CES 2026 debut in Vegas, where Evotrex will unveil the world’s first power-generating RV trailer. Commercial shipments hit by end of 2026. Every move screams precision, leveraging China’s production efficiency, finishing in California for market proximity, and threading the needle between innovation and execution.
The RV space is heating up with Lightship, Pebble & Grounded, but Evotrex is playing a different game. They saw the same data Scout Motors did, 80% of buyers want hybrid range, not full-electric limits. While others wait for infrastructure, Evotrex built something that doesn’t need it. That’s not rebellion, it’s evolution with horsepower.
