about time !!! - Airstream interiors are horrible !!! Airstream had the vision to explore a new concept. Hopefully Airstream will have the vision to make it happen, developing the concept and taking it to the market.
Wow, where to start? This is a great example of adapting ideas from around the world, good for Airstream to start to think outside the box. I know Airstream has reserve Manufacturing Capacity at their facility in Jackson Center Ohio, so I assume they want to take advantage of that by entering new markets and expanding others. With a product like this they can increase their Sales Overseas and in the USA. The "Collapsible Roof," to my knowledge, first introduced by VW, on their Vans is revolutionary in Travel Trailers, again a first. Obviously they want to cater to the Small Car crowd! Better MPG, and Garageable, it doesn't get much better that! I am not sure how they are going to address Air Conditioning, but I am sure that can be solved. The "Rear Door" is again a great idea, improved View and the ability to carry Bikes/SurfBoards etc! The Trailer's Chassis and Coupler allows for Sales around the World, and breaks with the USA's transitional method! The Overall Size and it's Minimalist Design makes sense to me! I'll give the concept a Passing Grade, go for it! This will be the smallest/lightest Airstream ever made, so hopefully the price will reflex this also.
I'm sorry but this design looks like it has been done by designers that have never been RVing. If you really want to design a small trailer better than an "original" Airstream you need: Design or include air conditioning and venting units that do not stick out on the top. Avoid pop-up ceilings that have disadvantages of tent trailers: These Don't hold in the heat, don't hold in the cold, get moldy on the screen materials, still allow small bugs and debris to enter, allow people to hear out side what you are saying or doing. The best design I have seen was a 2002 Casita brand all fiberglass trailer with a lowered built in air conditioning unit.
Love this concept. This layout and design was very similar to what I had in mind in the Class B market. I love the European influence because of the open & airy feel as well as the sophisticated fit & finish. Airstream is smart for collaborating with F.A. Porsche design as I’m starting to see the a few European influences and companies come to the U.S. in the class b market (Wingamm + Panoramic). It would be fun to pull this behind our Cayenne S.
I remember when the Basecamp was a concept between Nissan and Airstream. Then it was produced. Don't be shocked if this actually gets built. Unfortunately, the dealerships are keeping the company behind. I feel Thor needs to spin-off a legacy brand with airstream quality, fit and finish as a direct to consumer brand.
I Love Love ❤ this trailer!!! I would love to take this all around and then store it in my garage when I’m home! This trailer would get me around this beautiful country and would be a great backdrop to create videos as well! Did I say I loved this? Love❤❤❤
This is a very, very nice caravan. An Airstream that is truly suitable for European and also Japanese roads with a centrally placed axle and what is obviously Knott GmbH coupler, overrun brakes and handbrake and maybe chassis also. Possibly too the air suspension which I know that they also now produce. The Hymer-Erwin influences on the pop-top roof and interior are very obvious and I like that.
Looks beautiful. Said it before though on other small units like this, too small. Good for one person I’m sure though. Can’t wait to see one in real life. Well done to the designers.
The cost would be the number one concern. Then second, what kind of vehicle could pull it. I worry about the back being open and the number of bugs that will get in due to the lack of a screen. Is there air conditioning or heating?
Porsche developed a V-Twin engine for a Harley Davidson Motorsickle called a V-Rod. Harley-Davidson really stepped outside of their box with that collaboration. Porsche and Airstream will be a win win combination for the consumer.
I like the concept and the Porsche brand (I have four P-cars myself). The ability to be able to park the camper in the garage is a big plus. And the aerodynamics of which Porsche is famous for. I am not a fan, however, of the open rear concept. When I am in my RV trailer (yes, I have a 31ft RV trailer-non-Airstream), I like living in it. I spend my time during the day outside and the evenings/mornings inside enjoying the comforts of home. Great concept though. And to mention one advantage of travel trailers such as this one is that you can use your tow vehicle as your exploration vehicle, rather than having to tow a vehicle behind a motor home. More convenient and efficient.
Exemplary design beauty and functionality created by the collaboration of 2 great firms. Never would have thought Porsche and Airstream would come to the table together?
I love Airstream campers. I love Porsche 911s. What a great design partnership. I'd love to have one in my garage, next to my... Audi Q5 towing vehicle (in fairness, the Porsche Mecan is a really Audi Q5 with a different skin, so I'm good). Please build this!
Je ne comprends pas ? Il n'y a pas de mariage.....entre les deux marques ! Pas d'innovation extraordinaire pour cette grande marque que j'adore mais.... J'aimerais en savoir plus...!
Nice design, but it doesn't have the airstream feel. Why? An airstream needs its windows to extend around the corners to provide this unique cinematic/panoramic landscape view when sitting at the dining table, best enjoyed with a nice window tint for privacy and enhanced colours. THAT is the Airstream feel, nothing else! An open tailgate alone will not do that, as it provides no intimacy. It would be a nice additional feature though, since it also would allow for easy bike or scooter transport.
My idea for the tailgate would be to make one piece that folds down from the top. It would double the deck space and could have legs that fold down and maybe a railing that pops up. And of course, an awning that slides out.
like it can tow with almost any thing love my front and rear wraparound windows on my 2014 airstream 25'RB rear twin , would like a smaller trailer to go boon docking. use my tacoma to tow it looked at the bowuls trailers very light wt. for 27'
People buy this crap planning run away from miserable life, but truth is this will mostly stay in a garage until time to sell it for 1/3 or 1/5 of the price paid. There are huge problems with camping far away, find flat place, toilet, wind,rain and more. Human body is not made for tiny space around. Not much better than to tent here and there, but much more costly. But I understand, porshe and others need sell some crap to the naive ones. And what about driving in reverse, especially in wild nature.
This is too awesome to be just a concept trailer. I love it please mass produce this trailer
Does it look like an Airstream? No. Is it beautiful? Yes. Very. An Airstream that only Porsche or Apple could design.
This is exactly what I have been looking for in an Airstream.
This I would actually consider purchasing if it lives up to the design
please make this a reality - can't wait to own one
about time !!! - Airstream interiors are horrible !!!

Was this purely a paper design exercise or will we see this on the road sometime in the future?

In the france or germany you usually dont have an air conditioning 🤷🏼♂️
@@KingKong-kk5xh
Do you have conditions similar to those in the American southwest?
@@slackerprince1 No but is the american southwest the right market for such a tiny thing? You guys like your comfort as far i know💁🏼♂️
I am sure an AC System can be designed for this application.

I'm a proud airstream owner now. I own a 23 FB.
Hope it’s a new one and not my old one with the floor that has rotted out.
great floor plan the 23' and the 25' are just the right size and balanced I tow a 25' rear bedroom
@@Erin-Thor used. Floor is solid. It's a 2010

I should buy a 911 GT3 and this airstream to live inside instead of a house.
Wow,wow, wow a beautiful piece of art….
Lovely. Given the automotive mindset hope they’ll resolve the leak issues Airstreams are plagued with.
I would purchase a larger scale Porsche designed Airstream.
Looks beautiful. Said it before though on other small units like this, too small. Good for one person I’m sure though. Can’t wait to see one in real life. Well done to the designers.

What's it made of?
Do we think we'll see it here in the western hemisphere?

Amazing design. I know rivets = airstream but it looks so nice without the rivets. I fear this will be cost prohibitive to the average buyer

Exciting!! Great job Porsche!!!🏎️🏆👏❤ This design is perfect!!! Maybe other RV makers will take heed to this new and perfect design!!🇩🇪🇺🇸
Yes please!
Garage-able.. yes please. And maybe an A-liner pop up design.
Geil! Wann gibt es das in Deutschland?
Porsche developed a V-Twin engine for a Harley Davidson Motorsickle called a V-Rod. Harley-Davidson really stepped outside of their box with that collaboration. Porsche and Airstream will be a win win combination for the consumer.
Is this going to come with solar panels on the roof and motor assist for zero range reduction?
Unfortunately it is just a concept and will not likely be produced…
@@Webcrawler45 Let's face it, it a good idea! I would be surprised if they don't make it, either they will or someone else will steal it.

good 👍
Lovely. Not my personal style but really nice.
check the quality of all airstream products, quality control is damned bad.....
This is meant for a racing type car like Porche to pull? 🤣😂😅 Hope the suspension on the car is upgraded.
Definitely what I’ve been looking for
I like it!!! I want an aerodynamic trailer I can tow with an EV. Unfortunately, no one offers one so I will have to build it myself….
Looks amazing can't wait to see one at a dealership
Anything made by Thor Industries which is who owns AS, I would not own. Ever.
Je ne comprends pas ? Il n'y a pas de mariage.....entre les deux marques ! Pas d'innovation extraordinaire pour cette grande marque que j'adore mais.... J'aimerais en savoir plus...!
Looks far more like BMW i3 than anything Porsche
Omg if you could link 2 trailers together that would be awesome
So you developed the discontinued Airstream Nest.
I'm going to do this in a cargo trailer and save myself 90k, lol
Not a bad idea.
Please ensure an asset tracker is built in for the customer.
Can it be towed with a Subaru Outback? What is it's weight?
yeah, but just where do you put the Big Red Number?
It’s not a RV. You guys are just telling stories
Great idea looks awesome
👍🏻👍🏻 very cool
Yes, but are you going to make it?

Similar floor plan to the Basecamp. Save a ton by buying one of several length and/or versions of the BC.

Not a fan of pop ups
The bed orientation is problematic for people over 6ft tall.
Good point, they didn't cover that.
Good idea but this was designed for people who don’t use air conditioning or put ice in their drinks.
Low Low price if $250,000
ck out the bowlus trailers they are in that price range
@@youtubecarspottersguide1 Yes, but they are just basically the same old design, not much new to my knowledge.
I wonder how right to repair, friendly this can be.
Design wise, it's a home run.

Cool looking trailer
The engineer sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Get to the Choppa.
Gimme a break LoL
I'll take that bet.
Awesome
By dropping the height and installing the expandable roof...you have grossly eliminated tons of eye level storage...very bad idea,
Really, tell that to all the Pop Up Campers.
