A normal motorhome is not enough for your next holiday? Dreaming of more? Then you might want to be inspired by this cool conversion from China.
Campers have always tried the balancing act between mobility and comfort. This conversion from China is now taking it to the extreme with an almost penthouse-like double-decker based on a BYD truck. True to the motto "Why not?", Chengli Special Automobile has grabbed a hybrid truck from BYD and built a comfortable motorhome with all kinds of amenities on this basis.
Tiny House on Wheels – Everything You Need and More
In this conversion you will find more than enough comfort for your next vacation. Sleeping arrangements, kitchen with fridge, shower and toilet, air conditioning, TV and more ensure that you are on the road in luxury in your personal mobile home. In addition to the living spaces, this camper is also well equipped in terms of driving comfort thanks to the BYD truck base. The 1.5-liter hybrid engine offers 141 hp of power and a top speed of 100 km/h. In return, you also get adaptive cruise control, ABS, keyless entry and numerous assistance systems such as a reversing camera and more.
But back to the homely furnishings of the conversion. On the "ground floor" you get kitchen, sitting area and bathroom, so you are almost like in a small apartment. It even has its own power supply.
The icing on the cake is a second floor for a roof terrace with a penthouse feeling.
If the weather doesn't play along at the campsite, you can also turn the open terrace into a conservatory. Otherwise, you will find a cozy seating area and a second kitchenette on top of the camper. Of course, the space available in this converted truck clearly exceeds a normal camper, but how expensive would such a conversion be?
The answer is surprisingly favorable. On platforms like Made-in-China.com, conversions like this are offered at a price of just under 55,000 US dollars (depending on the number of purchases). But before you think about importing it, you should consider that such a unique piece still has to be homologated and thus you could face other costs and problems in addition to transporting the conversion from China.
If one of the European manufacturers were to develop a similar truck-based model for the local market, it would definitely enrich the camper scene. There are plenty of opportunities with trucks from Europe.
