CMT-2021

Camper brands are realizing many customers don't want a big, ugly RV rotting in the driveway for 3/4 of the year. Bürstner shows it's one of them with a Ford van that's part six-seat business van, part two-person gear-hauler and part family camper.

Small, flexible camper van specialist Crosscamp has revealed a lighter alternative for urban adventurers going from center city to wild campsites. The Crosscamp Lite has a simple floor plan optimized for both everyday to-do lists and camping trips.

Flowcamper started as the most psychedelic camper van brand since Woodstock. It now leaves the flowers and neon colors behind to create a VW mini mountain lodge. The Casper features mountain graphics, a spruce interior and a host of off-grid options.

There's something timelessly attractive about a roomy motorhome attached to a chassis as neatly as a van. Challenger presents one of the most striking and affordable versions yet. Its Combo gives road lifers more box with their Ducato camper van.

The young new year is picking right up where 2020 left off for interesting mini-campers. Vanderer adds to the fun by previewing a multitool-like mini-camper with convertible dining lounge, scenery-soaked sofa and indoor/outdoor dual-power kitchen.
