Where, besides a press release, can you find an all-electric SUV or car that will handle gravel roads? That you can ACTUALLY buy, and that costs less than a house?

I'm not that picky
- haul a 3500 lb trailer, once a month or so
- survive potholes or railway crossings on a road at 80+ kph
- 210 km range, one way, that I drive every second Friday evening, at 100 kph. I don't want to be a slow-moving hazard to other drivers

It would be great if I could haul the trailer to my cabin, but that would be pushing it a bit for an EV.

With no other visible options, I'm looking for a hybrid SUV ....
