Lightship's AE.1, a polished version of the L1 prototype, is redefining off-grid living. With only 50 Cosmos Editions available, this camper is slated to reach its owners by summer 2025.
Created for those with a preparedness mindset and a modest budget, the AE.1 Cosmos Edition is a self-sustaining camper and a wise investment in uncertain times. Even before any crisis, it offers a unique off-grid luxury experience.
- Accommodations: Sleeps up to four and includes a bathroom.
- Power: Features a 77.0-kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery.
- Propulsion: Comes with an integrated electric drive motor to assist with towing and braking.
- Appliances: Includes HVAC, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, oven, and stove.
Lightship plans to offer three additional trims: Atmos, Panos, and Terros.
- Atmos: $184,000
- Panos: $151,000
- Terros: $125,000
Production begins with Atmos in late 2025, while Panos and Terros will be available in 2026. Note: Unlike the higher trims, the Terros does not include an electric drive motor.
Though on the pricey side, the Lightship AE.1 Cosmos Edition is a luxurious and practical solution for those seeking a preparedness option without the need to go underground.
Summary: The Lightship AE.1 Cosmos Edition fuses luxury with off-grid efficiency, appealing to niche buyers. Production starts in summer 2025, with additional trims offering various features and price points soon after.
