With its patented retractable chassis that lowers it to the ground and an electric expansion system, the Touchdown promises an off-grid living experience that's far from roughing it.

What makes the Touchdown different? It's all about space

The key to the Touchdown's appeal lies in its transformative design. Expandable's philosophy is to create "a space that can turn into a trailer, instead of a trailer that can turn into a space," emphasizing spaciousness and a seamless connection between travel and relaxation. The Touchdown achieves this with a patented external retractable wheel system, eliminating awkward steps and providing a natural, accessible entrance.

Using a lockable slide-out control panel, you can hydraulically lift the trailer, retract the wheels to the back via a set of rails and lower the unit to ground level. This innovative system gives you the look and ground-level entry of a permanent building without sacrificing any interior space to wheel wells. And if you need even more room, the Touchdown utilizes an electric expansion system to further increase the floor plan. With these features, the Touchdown strikes a balance between optimal use of interior space and a friendly, inviting entrance close to ground level.

DISCOVER THE FUTURE OF RVING WITH THE ELECTRIC TRANSFORMER HOUSE

What can you expect inside?

The Expandable Mansion offers highly customizable floor plans, with layouts beyond a single open space to include multiroom designs. The intention is for the inside to be a blank canvas, ready to be transformed into your dream mobile home. You can expect full utilities, including comprehensive water, sewage and power solutions for comfortable, off-grid living, alongside high-end appliances to help with cooking, cleaning and relaxation. Entertainment is at your fingertips with full multimedia systems, and you can set the perfect mood with ambient LED lighting.

Buyers can choose to line each lengthy sidewall with floor-to-ceiling automotive-grade glass, with or without optional electric sliding doors to open the space up whenever desired. With these options, the Expandable Mansion aims to have occupants forget they're in a trailer and not a luxury apartment.

WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON, THIS COMPACT RV ADDS EXTRA SPACE WITH A SIMPLE TWIST

The birth of Expandable

Expandable started in 2016, initially focusing on event trailers, the kind you see at motorsport races or trade shows. They carved out a niche by offering a middle ground between basic, mass-produced trailers and expensive, fully customized builds. They soon realized the potential for something more, especially as demand grew for livable mobile spaces. That's how the Expandable Touchdown concept was born.

THE BEST TRAVEL GEAR FOR 2025

How much will all of this cost you?

OK, let's get down to brass tacks. The Expandable Touchdown isn't cheap. A very basic, empty 38-foot Touchdown business trailer (with solid sidewalls, no power, lighting or climate control) starts at $346,000. Adding full-length glass, air conditioning, diesel heating and basic LED lighting can easily push the price over $500,000. And we can only imagine how much a fully decked-out Expandable Touchdown with a smart home floor plan and premium finishes would cost. And that's before you even consider the larger 53-foot model. To give you an idea of the various models:

  • Touchdown Basic: Starting at approximately $275,000, this model includes automatic leveling, a retractable axle bogie and a low step-in height
  • Touchdown Advanced: From around $355,000, you get premium glass, cool white LED lines, air conditioning and a doorstep
  • Touchdown Premium: At roughly $425,000, this top-tier model features a roof terrace with stairs, powerful air conditioning, exterior RGB LED strips and premium color options
