Those looking to purchase a camper and see travel the roads exploring this vast continent may well consider the Doubleback VW T5 Camper. Why? Well, for starters it gets a combined fuel economy of 30.6 mpg!
That fuel economy is better than most sedans, SUVs, trucks, and certainly campers. The car measures out at a length of 5.9m (~19.4 feet) which is long, but still easily manageable. However, it is the surprise inside that makes this vehicle truly amazing. The hatch back reveals real cargo space in the rear. In most cases, the cargo space is so wide that bicycle racks or even a trailer will not be necessary.
If that wasn’t all, the press of a button extends out the rear another 2 meters (6.6 feet) to reveal a two-person bed. Along with the drop-down bed in the roof, the camper can sleep three persons easily. The extended cabin is composed of an aluminum alloy weighing 130kg (286 lbs). While the extension is expanding outwards, it can bear a weight of 300 kg (661 lbs).
When fully extended, two corner steadies come out to stabilize the vehicle. When they are in place, the extension can bear 600kg (1,322 lbs) of weight. Inside the camper, it has a mini sink and small compressor fridge. Simply put, the designers of this small camper have maximized space to produce a highly fuel efficient and small-sized camper. It carries a hefty price tag at $87,000, but those wanting a camper will likely be very pleased with it.
