    Come on. That was a bloody good opening. Only took 5 takes! :D
    But what do you reckon guys, think you could sleep in it?
    Honestly, it was pretty amazing waking up overlooking Mount Fuji and after many years of complaining about camping and RV's, I think I may finally get the appeal 😅
    And a huge thanks to Mitsubishi Fuso for letting us borrow this prototype wonder truck for a couple of days! I want one.

      Japanese designers are really insanely amazing. Every time i think i wont be impressed, a new absolutely amazing thing appears, if its not very innovative, its always at least so well executed and presented that its perhaps even better than something entirely new.
      It seems like japan was always like this huh? Kinda of a very fertile place for creativity and very masterful craftsmanship, not surprising that the whole japonisme thing happened and, if we think about it, never really ended.

      A few companies have tried, but unfortunately things like this are just way too boutique and niche to have any sort of benefit from mass production. The price always ends up at a point where, you may as well just buy a Class B RV that's purpose built rather than sort of "refitted", used or even new sometimes for about the same cost.

      there doesn't seem to be some kind of netting outside... so that's also slightly concerning...
      also doesn't seem like there is enough space for the to store out door furniture which it seems they obviously needed...

    In australia, we use solar hot water heaters for camping, which can range from a black coloured bag of water or PVC pipe network that can be hung from a tree for a shower, all the way to proper solar heat exchangers for camper vans. With this one, it looks like you could attach a thin tank to the back wall of the truck that can heat up in the sun during the day, and have hot water at night (or be assisted with elements to heat it up). Maybe even syphon heat from the engine bay during operation

      I love my Mitsubishi, 23 years old and has never missed a beat, original clutch even! I'd get a new car, but everyone I know with new ones have problems all the time and nuts to that!

    I'm a bit surprised a prototype like this doesn't have solarpanels on the roof. Or a flow through heater for the shower water. Very nice form factor though, built on the base of a comercial vehicle.

      Pretty sure those are the unfortunate compromise to allow that, admittedly impressive, dual-widescreen monitor setup. I'd imagine that without one of monitors, this could easily be quite luxurious on the waterworks side and/or allow extended kitchen/cold storage space - or anything really.
      Dunno how good idea the solar panels on that kind of folding cover would be but.. if there were one or two of those small, portable ones stashed somewhere on board, this wouldn't be a problem. I was actually thinking if they have any reasonably small and powerful "wind sails", those weird tubular wind generators in a form that'd be useful on this small scale.

    Any Mitsubishi workers reading this- adding a wheelchair lift as an option if you ever mass produce it would see so many sales! Myself and many other wheelchair users miss camping as so many campers aren’t made/ have the option to be accessible. Being so small, wouldn’t make much difference to most- once we’re up inside, it just means less space to get around. So long as you can get to the bed and the seat, you’re fine.

    Interesting to watch camper/ vanlife in japan. It will be interesting to see how the prototype evolves into a fully functional camper vehicle. The current vehicle has some cool ideas, but ive seen it done better on other boxtrucks conversions, except for the raising side wall. that was cool, but needs a insect screen. I'd love to see what Mitsubishi does with the finished product.

  • @riennekoh3901

    The Mt Fuji view is priceless, esp the shot when the camera was above the clouds. Best thing about the RV is the side can be opened up & one can fully enjoy the outdoor while lounging in the RV. Unfortunately, the RV is too small though. If you've seen a few YT videos on some of the nice Western-made RVs out there, this one when closed is too claustrophobic. The bed is not big enough for 2, the bathroom is too small & I dunno, do you have to slide the toilet out or what. I believe the RV technology out there has already mastered how to have hot water for shower. Heating in the colder months and AC in the hot months are essential.

    One thing worries me is safety concerns over the button feature shown that opens it from the outside. Hopefully it has a locking feature that can keep people from simply opening it whenever they like, like if your sleeping or left your belongings in it while you're away from it. Stay safe you two.
