Buyers can get the RV in seven colours, and four of them are two-tone combinations. An awning is among the standard equipment on the outside.
Inside, the rear seats fold into a double bed. The front seats can become a smaller daybed. Camping in Australia can get hot, so the Kampervan has an air conditioner and two fans. If things get too chilly, there's a diesel heater.
The pictures show the Kampervan with a modern-looking cabin. The walls, ceiling, and cabinetry are white. The rear bed is very light grey. The floor has a light shade of wood finish. With the pale colour scheme, if you spill anything, it's going to be easy to see.
