RV Melds VW Camper Van, Trailer into New ‘Van Life’ Unit – RVBusiness – Breaking RV Industry News
Many an RV buyer has had to navigate the decision between camper van and small travel trailer, according to an article at NewAtlas.com.
French startup Bivoak hopes to eliminate that process of pro/con compromise by bringing together the advantages of both into a single vessel fittingly called the Bivan. The garageable four-sleeper trailer isn’t tied to the lifespan of a single vehicle but offers a layout and feature set derived directly from classic Volkswagen pop-up camper vans. It’s a new style of ‘van life for a new breed of roadway voyager.
A camper van is fully contained and easier to maneuver on highway and backway than a vehicle towing a trailer.
On the other hand, living space-to-total vehicle size is limited in a van as compared to a caravan that’s free to dedicate its entire interior to camping, something that’s especially important when trying to fit in as many family members as possible. And it’s advantageous to be able to unhitch and leave the trailer behind to reserve your campsite while venturing out during the day.
