New Campervan - A Future Classic?
Hi,
Reminds me of a 1940 London cab complete with gasbag.
Not exactly aerodynamic either.
No solar panel
Back springs need stiffening
Apart from that it's just plain bl**dy ugly. Somebody has definitely been smoking something he shouldn't!

Hi
Oh, hell, I have to laugh at that...it's true, it looks like a wartime gas-bag conversion.....I REALLY can't stop laughing....I wish you could see me....It looks like something a Bulgarian peasant farmer designed!!!!!
Cheers

In the beginning there was nothing , then God said "Let there be Light".....There was still nothing , but ,by crikey, you could see it better.
Re: New Campervan - A Future Classic?
It's that bit that has me laughing.The Toyota Prius is by far the most popular hybrid on the market, but even though it has a stellar reputation for being fuel efficient,
Everyone I know who has one moans that as soon as they go anywhere out of town and start using the engine to actually get somewhere the MPG plummets to usual petrol levels.
If when tested Priuses had to recharge the battery to the level before the test took place their real MPG would be half the "official" figure.
And they accuse VW of "fiddling" the figures...............

And to look even more different, maybe step out of it naked
Of course, the conversion will kill your gas mileage, since the top is not very aerodynamic, but just think of how different you’ll look pulling up to the camp grounds in this Prius Camper.
The contraption looks like a Prius about to be swallowed by a large whale. Perhaps they should call it the Prius Jonah
Re: New Campervan - A Future Classic?
Goodness, one weird motor.
And I rather agree with Mike's 'Whale' comment.
