All-electric camper vans have been slow to materialize, limited to concept cars and a very select few compact vans scattered about Europe. What the world has really been wanting to see is a pop-up Volkswagen Bulli camper van with comfortable floor plan and pure battery power. VW has one in its plans, but that won't happen for a few more years. In the meantime, German converter Flowcamper steps in with the Frieda Volt. Based on the VW T5/T6, the new van swaps its combustion engine for an all-electric powertrain and gets a…

If you’ve been wondering what your Bear Grylls lifestyle has been missing all this while, meet the weird and wonderful BeTriton, the amphibious e-trike that’s a bike, a boat, and… a camper. Behold!

Mahindra Thar is a very popular vehicle among overlanders and off-roaders. This is because of its off-road capability and go-anywhere nature.

More often than not, large off-grid adventure rigs are rugged hunks of utilitarian heavy machinery outside, luxurious glamping retreats inside. Loki Basecamp flips that formula on its head with its latest creation, taking a high-priced, 45-foot luxury motor coach and outfitting it into something of an adventure hostel on wheels. The first launch of its new Loki Coach brand, the XL Coach motorhome uses its massive size to house a powerful off-grid residence ready to support its owner and seven others as they explore…

Hitting a new lightweight benchmark for a fully enclosed pickup camper, RoverKing is looking to turn some of the market's most off-road-capable midsize trucks – à la Jeep Gladiators, Toyota Tacomas and Chevy Colorados – into all-out go-anywhere 4x4 micro-RVs. The Canadian startup thinks of its Capra camper like a backpack for your truck, and at under 700 lb, we'd call it the equivalent of a sub-pound Dyneema backpack stuffed with equally ultralight camping gear. It's never easy building a complete pickup camper around the…

Electric campers have a certain charm to them, being able to explore the open road powered by the free sun rays beaming above you. But what if you could combine that freedom with the versatility of an electric boat and an electric bike? That’s exactly what Aigars Lauzis sought to capture when he designed the BeTriton electric camper. It may not be the first three-wheeled electric RV we’ve spotted, but it’s definitely the most versatile. The Latvian-made electric camper isn’t designed for cross-country trips, at…

Already a year old, the Hyundai Staria van still looks more like a brand-new concept vehicle than most actual concept cars. However, it's the real deal, a futuristic take on the MPV available from dealerships in markets around the world. Hyundai tipped early on that it had planned its own Staria camper van, a successor to the pop-top Grand Starex camper, and it's now debuted a pair of mini-RVs that blend the Staria's visionary looks and cutting-edge driving technologies with modern smart-camping comforts. Buyers can…
