The easiest approach is "half a car", since the electric drive is already built in. I'll admit I'm not interested in completely re-engineering everything just to make the trailer look more like a trailer. (And I kind of like the idea of the half-a-car look.)

Cheaper insurance than two cars too.

That thought crossed my mind.

Only drive-ability concerns are ... brakes in electric only mode

It's pretty easy to keep/get vacuum assist in the lead car: just spin the engine, either with the key or let the clutch out. Don't even have to start it. Or add a vacuum pump.
It would make sense to have brakes on the pusher as well. It would need a vacuum pump though (currently they're manual). And a way to activate them.
