Electric camper van? Cool concept, but unfortunately won’t take you far into the wild 🙁
Not cheaper options
Thanks for sharing our Australian build Renault Trafic custom manufactured Southern Spirit Campervan. As not all people are able to create their DIY dream camper and on the other side not happy what’s offered in mass production- a custom conversion can make their dreams true for a price which is the same or less as a standard fitout.
And yes, proper Campervans are not in general cheap products, but everyone who has build one knows how many hours and effort it is to build one.
i could get a new sprinter van for this price.
So expensive in America much cheaper in uk
Look at "nést by egoe" modules to me it is the best cheap camper solution I know (I personally own one and I love it.)
Wrong still very expensive, you can buy a brand new campervan here in UK for 22k
This is why I say guys make your own don’t pay no $40,000 for no van life you people are stupid to do so I made my high-top for pennies on the dollar and I saved $5,000 you can do it yourself subscribe to my channel and I’ll show you how
Campers are ridiculously overpriced, better convert it myself
Anything on east coast.
The computer generated voices ruined this for me. I couldn’t watch more than a few minutes.
The kit options sound like a still. How much would they cost together with a van?
AFFORDABLE ????? BULLSHIT !!!!!
Out of my price range

So NOT Affordable.
Completely mad ….!
So …, to much money for those easy and simply products ?
Shaming offert.
$55k for a vw van that’s a movile apartment is a bargain. That’s less that 2 year’s rent in a big city, don’t forget you can park anywhere.
Terrible speaking voice. Get a real person.
À combien cela commence se petit campeur?
Well, no, I would NOT say these are affordable! My house cost $66,000 in 2011 and was freshly remodeled!
43,000 dollars isn’t cheap lol
There were only 2 vans I considered cheap/affordable
1,000 – 5,000 is cheap
IMHO a foldable bathroom should be included!
