Camper van specialist Remote Vans is growing its footprint with a brand-new production facility and three-model lineup of Mercedes Sprinter 144 AWD campers. The builder steps beyond the ordinary, innovating much of its own hardware to reflect its founders' overlanding, digitally nomadic roots. Its entire lineup of vans combines cutting-edge standard tech features like Starlink satellite internet and a loaded lithium electrical system with clever space-optimizing solutions that include a legless split-mattress Murphy bed,…

"The most flexible vehicle in the world" and the "future of camping" – that's how German camper shop Vanexxt envisions its newest creation, the Ford Tourneo Custom V710. It might seem like it's overreaching, but the company has a clear plan on how to surpass some of Europe's other most modular camper vans. Instead of merely relying on its own equipment, Vanexxt has made its compact Ford pop-up camper compatible with a wide range of modules from companies around Germany. And it doesn't stop at camper modules, adding…

The automotive market has left Caravan Outfitter with zero mini-camper van platforms, after discontinuing the Nissan NV200, Mercedes Metris and Ford Transit Connect. But the Washington company isn't complaining, turning those extra-sour lemons into delicious Mercedes-Benz Sprinter lemonade. Its first foray into full-size camper vans upsizes the small, multifunctional practicality of a mini-camper, providing two beds under one factory roof, seating space for five, and plenty of open, uncluttered floor space for cargo and…

Redtail Overland made a name for itself in 2020 with a rooftop tent (RTT) quite unlike any other. The expandable hard-walled wedge featured fully insulated carbon fiber construction and a US$20,000+ price tag. The company eventually brought that heavy, hard-shelled, high-priced RTT to market but ultimately realized the price was just too high for the RTT market. It's now hoping the hard-sided pop-top will work better as part of a cutting-edge half-million-dollar Mercedes explorer yacht for road and trail. The new Skyloft…

Since its debut in 2017, the Winnebago Revel has served as a poster child for the popularity and marketing power of adventure van life and overlanding, giving those trends backing from one of the most recognizable names in RVing. The van has been improving over time, gaining some key power and indoor/outdoor upgrades for the 2021 model year, for example. Now Winnebago doubles down on its off-grid capabilities, multiplying the all-new 2025 Revel's lithium battery and fresh water capacity for up to seven days of off-grid…

Long known for its X1 pickup truck camping topper, Oregon's Super Pacific is sidestepping into the camper van market. Its first van component splits the difference between rooftop tent (RTT) and full-blown pop-up roof, offering the slim chassis of a hardshell tent and the van-interior access of a pop-up roof. Called the Cloud Cap, the sleek add-on grows a two-person adventure van into a family RV, leaves space on the roof for air conditioners and vents, and includes T-slot framing for easy attachment of crossbars, solar…

Hymer is mining nostalgia for decades past to lay the foundation of a new camper van future, shuffling brand names around to present a true eye-catcher meant to encourage freedom and adventure. The all-new Eriba Car brings back some of the timeless style and flash of the classic dual-tone VW camper bus but on a modern VW Crafter van filled out with the warm, homey ambiance for which Hymer group products have become known. Designed to be "anything but ordinary," the new camper van looks to offer van lifers something a…

Back in 2020, Winnebago grew its all-terrain RV footprint with the original Ekko, a larger, roomier Ford Transit AWD alternative to the company's Mercedes Sprinter-based Revel camper van. Now the company is bringing those two camper products closer together than ever with a Sprinter-based Ekko. Not only does the new plus-sized camper van come with the bragging rights of a three-pointed star on its grille, it promises more off-road capability, more space and a few versatile new features, including a multifunctional…

RedSands made some news earlier this year when it introduced an electrified Toyota Hilux camper truck, one of our favorite truck camping innovations of 2023. That rig wasn't to be the only innovative Hilux creation the RV rental company added to its fleet this year. Still in development, its all-new Wanderer will be launching off into the Outback and toward the Australian coastline in 2024. The rugged but cozy truck combines RedSands' traditional canopy/rooftop tent combo into a single camper, providing a seamless indoor…

Following more than a decade of impressive work creating small camper vans for the Korean market, Unicamp has been quickly building up a US presence with a growing lineup of affordable minivan pop-tops. Last year, it entered the market with the Kia Carnival pop-top, launched in collaboration with Las Vegas-area dealership Caleche Customs, and now the two introduce the even more versatile Toyota Sienna pop-up camper, an affordable sleeper van solution with an economical hybrid powertrain and available all-wheel drive ...…
