Love this! I’ve been waiting in anticipation to see your tour of it! Firstly, well done to Bürstner for thinking outside the box with this one. I think the answer is to make caravans lighter, smaller and and more aerodynamic. The Americans seem to insist that self-propulsion is the answer, but simple good design to reduce weight, drag and improve aerodynamics are going to achieve the same thing for a lot less money, opening a concept like this up to a much wider audience. I LOVE the multi-use furniture, especially the kitchen. Those who’ve followed my vintage Cheltenham caravan project will have seen the same idea, I’m improving it further for my next restoration. Not carrying an onboard cooker in addition to external cooking equipment is going to save space and weight. It’s a lot of the small touches that impress me too - the acoustic wall panels, adaptable lighting, adjustable height for the kitchen when outside, the multi-use garage area… it’s all brilliant. I will be following this one closely. Let’s hope it makes it to production and also that it’s affordable!
I absolutely love it too. I agree with all of your comments as well. If I may add a few more comments I have to compliment yours: 1. The dry toilet idea, I'm not a fan of at all. 2. The space under the bed is perfect as a bunk for a teenager. Love the lighting and storage under there. It could also be a lovely space for your pets as well. 3. I love the kitchen so much! I actually like the idea of one side of the caravan been sealed off from prying eyes. The decor is gorgeous! 4. The lighting seems to me to be perfect. I'd like to see what it's like outside of the convention centre. Charging the lights wouldn't be a problem for me. I already do it. It's one of those jobs you'd do when you take it back to storage. Empty the fridge, mop the floor, charge the lights etc... With a few solar panels on the roof, by the time you're ready to go back out in it, everything is fully charged again. 5. I wouldn't take the dinette out of the van. Esp not in the UK anyway. The removable kitchen is fantastic! Finally, I love it and am excited to see how this progresses.
I absolutely love it!! Everything, from the gorgeous kitchen and washroom, the seating and table that's removeable and the bed, what can you say about the bed that you haven't already said?!! Very, very impressed Andrew! With this video as well, brilliant review! Onwards & upwards! See if this can be beaten, don't hold your breath!! Hugs xxx 😘🥰🐶🐕
In my opinion Pros: Very beautiful design. Innovative. Practical. Good size. Definately you'll find many new friend once you park this on the campsite. Cons: The washroom could be bigger with a fix toilet. Relying in only one energy source, is not a good idea when you are out with the caravan, Once the electricity fails of any reason, you have to book a room in a nearest hotel. Also this is ONLY summer time caravan. It can be used only 3-4 month of the year in the countries like UK or north Europe. No insulation and your upper torso will freeze during the night in that bed. I guess it will be expensive once it comes to the market, so the question is, If it worth buying it and use only few months of the year.
because my tendency at the moment goes towards caravans... i so would buy this one. nice, petite and stylish... luvit! it's about time to break the mediocre layouts they cling to for sooo many years. great video, so glad you are at the salon, so we will get excellent content. thank you, andrew. maybe i "bump" into you tomorrow :-)
Like the external shape and aerodynamics. Having a rear garage is likely to cause instability issues if used for heavy loads. No wardrobe? Kitchen looks a bit cramped tho nicely finished. Would want proper toilet, and the seating looks uncomfortable. Nice interior finish tho. Love the big fridge, hope it's a compressor.
Absolutely amazing! Really love it! It’s so strange that Bürstner makes the coolest concept caravans, the Harmony Concept was also amazing, and yet their production models just feels like a LMC with different colour scheme. Bürstner should really start making these cool concepts into production models so they become more unique in the caravan market!
Loved it , hope it's produced. We have a Bailey Discovery and I would love to swap out the gas hob and oven for a microwave+ induction hob , especially if the hob was demountable to use outside.
Whoever designed this has come up with some significant ideas. That bed and the extension is so clever. The kitchen layout is superb and that door to the front locker just wow. I don’t think I’d be inclined to take the seats out but I can see that it could be useful. Love it!
This is absolutely genius, love it! The kids room idea is brilliant, privacy for them and for mum and dad. Lots of space to sit as a family and play games without having to faff about putting beds away. I see what you mean about the removable/rechargeable lights... a fix would be utilising induction charging when they're on the wall mounts so they can continuously charge and be swapped out with the pendant. Only other thing is how will an awning fit with the new shape? Other than that, brilliant!
Love it!! What an awesome design. Just one thing, I would like a window in the door 😊 Sleeping arrangements, never mind the kids, I want to sleep in the cave lol 😂. Top job as always Andrew, keep them coming. Best wishes, Bryan in Malta 🇲🇹
Hari OM OOOOHHHHHHH, Andrew, this one is lush! Owes quite a bit to the campervan movement, I cannot help but observe, with the styling, but that's what makes it so attractive. I really like that 'nose utility', making sense by the door, moving seamlessly to living and then sleeping. I think it would be quite nice to have a bunkbed arrangement, as not everyone wants a double, and then there would be even more locker/storage space available. Very nice, Burstner! YAM xx
This is awesome! Really love everything in and on this concept, although the cabinets do not have to be removable and I would prefer gas to cook on, but the layout is perfect. Can’t wait to be able to buy one ( if the price is reasonable), bring it on!
Love the concept as long as it is not too flimsy. I like the dual use as you can knock out the outdoor cooking set and seating if you want. Less to carry. Weight and price will be the deciding factor.
I absolutely love this! The flexibility is fantastic! For instance I would want a version to not have the bed extension, but just have the bed and use the downstairs section exclusively for storage. This makes long term travel really workable. However the caveat to that is the need for weight stability; perhaps the water storage could be towards the front as well. IDK what all the options are but I do know you can't have a lot of weight at the end of a caravan. I'm in Australia and the market for this could be excellent. I would add an awning to the side, essential for the weather here can be very hot indeed. Also air conditioning is essential as are solar power panels.
Have they done any testing with an EV to see the difference it makes when towing? I'm really excited to see EV focused caravans make it to market, particularly if they are as fresh a design as this, so many thoughtful touches
Love it. I tow an Eriba and the aerodynamic shape does help when towing. I like the idea of a removable kitchen unit. It saves the weight of having both inside and outside cooking facilities. I think removable lights are a bit of a gimmick. Portable USB rechargeable lights cost peanuts anyway without the need to remove your lights from the caravan. However that is a small detail. The only real downside is the lack of a view to the front. I like to people watch. I too am not convinced by the dry plastic bag toilets. I thought we were trying to avoid plastic bags. I cannot see the problem with the standard cassette loo as long as green fluid is used. It might be a different thing for those going off grid in campervans and avoid them dumping their waste in the countryside although if they dump their bags it would be worse.
I see here a lot of good ideas. As a driver of a Model 3 and towing a 800kg caravan with no aerodynamic, Im exited to see that the caravan world is trying to adapt the new models to be towed by EV, saving weight and including aerodinamic on the design. Also, I'm pretty sure that there is room for improvement on the inertia brakes to help the regenerative brakes
Love it!! Finally more aero focus, also the modular concept and optional child cave was great! Also hoping for more pop up roof options so total height can be reduced. What about the Hobby Beachy Air concept going into production?? BTW thanks for another great video! /Peter
Love so many of these innovative features, Andrew! All brilliant other than the view-limiting windows. Perhaps would better suit summer touring rather than all-season? Will be interesting where they go with heating, etc. plastic bags, eh? Mmmm?
Absolutely love this. Currently looking for our first caravan to tow with our EV. Probably wouldn't move the chairs outside though and would prefer chemical toilet
Hello Andrew...thanks for the detailed description of the concept. Things are slowly getting moving in the traditional caravans. What I would be interested to know is: how is it heated and how is it air-conditioned. Obviously gas is out 🙂Have fun exploring Düsseldorf. Greetings, Carsten😎
That is a lot of clever design, the only thing that springs to mind, is that when you are in bed, is there good soundproofing where your heads will be? I am also not sure about the front outside storage, it is probably more weight than the benefit it offers. I love the inside/outside use of the kitchen and seating, such a well designed multi use idea.
It’s great to see new ideas being brought to concept. I really like the ideas in there. The kitchen looks amazing and the front locker looks great. I think the lights could do with charging whilst in place in the caravan (a usb socket in the ceiling with a braided cable along with the rope they currently have). I like the idea of taking the benches out but would that compromise how comfortable they are? I wish you could borrow caravans like this to try how well they work.
I love the shape - as you say, aerodynamics are more important than ever. I also love the front kitchen. Would the noseweight be high? The fold out bed makes sense too. I'm not sure the Brits will warm to a central seating area though. Well done to Burstner for thinking outside the box.
Andrew - great video and here’s some Burstner feedback - it’s touted as aero but the back end in spite of it having a low wing (not a step!! And curious to see if like older airstreams it has a smooth underside) a flat back is akin to having a parachute out back - they should consider some tapering off the roof at least. Aero is everything and when we moved from a swift 25ft to a airstream 684 (so another 500ish kg our tow vehicle (on the flat roads at least ) still had the same mpg. I liked the wheels - shades of the Morgan 3 but maybe a bit too thin. Given the pitch (pun) on adaptation on furniture scrap the side garage door and convert the back to a drop down ramp (like our friends at Knauss) the bedroom insulated canopy (which I assume is inflate off onboard compressor) would still pivot off the main body. All in loved it but still love our 684 but always an eye on the future where at some point we’ll have to downsize. Burstner build it - but keep an eye on the price/quality/speed and we want all 3!
Love the visual. Would have been interested to see the bedroom extension folded in to have a better understanding of how it looks and stores. I am thinking about the scenario of having to move on when it has been raining and folding in a wet bump out. I agree with you about not want to poop in a bag. I would not take out the seating - what a faff. I see where they are going with the removable cook top but definitely in the US van lifers have far easier portable induction cook tops that store more easily and allow for more bench top space. If I were designing it then I would have it on slide out brackets that you can access from the exterior through some kind of hatch so you can slide it internally / externally to provide the ability to use it both internally and externally without the need to lift it and carry a bench outside.
Love the alternative options/designs being investigated here. Really not sure about the toilet, on environmental and (I can't lie) personal preference, even if the site does have toilets.
That bed 😍 like it hope it makes it to the NEC in February. Only thing is there a wardrobe for clothes. Microwave or oven? Looks a bit Like a cross between the Basecamp and knaus sports, not a bad thing at all
Very attractive. Never owned a towed caravan as I think of them as something old people buy. However, I would consider this style dependent on price point.
That is amazing 😍 think the dinette seating outside is a step too far (especially on soft ground) but love the idea of cooking outside without needing extra portable BBQs etc. 8 hope you get to road rest that one when the settle on a production model 👍🤞 top job bustener
The caravan looks really beautiful and has alot of great ideas, but for electric vehicles it probably needs to be a bit less wide and maybe inflateable in height as even wit more aerodynamic design and less weight, it still has a huge profile against the wind.
Burstner really are or should be getting a name for themselves as innovators.Love the whole concept and the only thing that needs more thought is allowing that large front locker door to act as as some form of canopy.
Really great concept. But feels like it would suit a couple more than a family. Although I like the idea of our kid having their own den we have lots stored in our little garage and it’s difficult to see where it would go. Also we have a hybrid car and the nose weight is very low for the towbar so I’d be interest to see how having the kitchen at the front affects weight and balance. Overall a super design.
Maybe could use the collapsible inflated concept for the upper side walls to lower roof while driving to improve aerodynamics...and bring it under 2 metres to give classe 1 toll charge on French autoroutes
Very interested, depending on pricing. Toilet must be a cassette however, and there must be a tv bracket / aerial. Fridge / freezer good side. All electric cooking good. Bed size excellent (don’t know why other manufacturers aren’t doing wall to wall beds.😊
Some great ideas,love the astetics, would prefer hardsided bedroom extensions, do they have a model with out that,the Ikea camper, your going to have to keep your eye on this company, there going where others aren't or very few, atb
Hi Andrew ! It's very handsome and I'm thinking there's something vaguely Basecamp - ish about it - so Swift should be flattered!? I'm thinking the spoiler, the aerodynamics, interior fittings and particularly the removable locker bags. That said I'm not nuts on the rechargeable lighting. I'd forget to recharge them / lose them...equally 😉
There is still some time before it comes to the market so if all those mentioned shortcomings are fixed it will be a great one. I myself honestly hope it will come with a twin axle chassis, regardless of its size: for better departure angle, shorter rear overhang and so for better manoeuvrability and stability of towing.
Love the wood accents and removable storage lockers. Would prefer the lockers to be a lighter neutral colour and not the red accents (limits your decorating colour choices). Like that you still have a bed even with the bed extension in. Like to removable hob - would take it outside, not sure I’d take the sofa outdoors.
Thank You Everybody for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste

Burstner are Avantgarde leading the alternative design schemes giving many options, which shows how they look to service many situations
Just Awesome

Some really great ideas there! Love the removable “cabinets”. And the convertible storage locker. Great ideas.
A breath of fresh air!
Like the external shape and aerodynamics. Having a rear garage is likely to cause instability issues if used for heavy loads. No wardrobe? Kitchen looks a bit cramped tho nicely finished. Would want proper toilet, and the seating looks uncomfortable. Nice interior finish tho. Love the big fridge, hope it's a compressor.
Would be very tempted by this one❤
perfect innovations. love the removable cabinets. It looks also very moderne but still cosy inside. would use the ideas for my own camper
Absolutely amazing! Really love it!
It’s so strange that Bürstner makes the coolest concept caravans, the Harmony Concept was also amazing, and yet their production models just feels like a LMC with different colour scheme. Bürstner should really start making these cool concepts into production models so they become more unique in the caravan market!
Looks cool, think it's a great concept. You are right there are a few faff items but some great ideas.
Loved it , hope it's produced. We have a Bailey Discovery and I would love to swap out the gas hob and oven for a microwave+ induction hob , especially if the hob was demountable to use outside.
Me too in my Basecamp which, as I've said above already has some of the Burstner features 🤔
Whoever designed this has come up with some significant ideas. That bed and the extension is so clever. The kitchen layout is superb and that door to the front locker just wow.
I don’t think I’d be inclined to take the seats out but I can see that it could be useful. Love it!
A truly stunning concept......I love it!!! ❤❤
Wow, that looks amazing! Thanks for showing us Andrew

I love it, perfect size, functional, mix with outdoor. ❤❤❤
Love it!! What an awesome design. Just one thing, I would like a window in the door 😊
Sleeping arrangements, never mind the kids, I want to sleep in the cave lol 😂.
Top job as always Andrew, keep them coming.
Best wishes, Bryan in Malta 🇲🇹
Agree otherwise the front end does seem a tad dark ?

Finally a versatile concept! Love it! Hope it makes it to serial production. Definitely want one 🤩.
Love it. So versatile. Great layout.
Love the concept as long as it is not too flimsy. I like the dual use as you can knock out the outdoor cooking set and seating if you want. Less to carry. Weight and price will be the deciding factor.
Interesting 👍😁🥰🍀Thank you.
This is fantastic! We want one! My only hold out is the Mobi-Lodge. I will be monitoring this. Keep up the good work, Andrew!
Absolutely gorgeous and very functional. Please bring them to Canada!
The concept looks great and I imagine the finished product will be even better.
Love it! The start of a very modern take on caravaning. Mobile glamping - it’s a new category 😄
Love the concept and light weight. Would like more about systems and capacities.
Wow! It looks fantastic - can't wait!!
Superb, hope it comes to fruition
I absolutely love this! The flexibility is fantastic! For instance I would want a version to not have the bed extension, but just have the bed and use the downstairs section exclusively for storage.

Great design concept
Andrew I have those lights above my wall pictures and they are fantastic, easy to deal with and charge, fantastic concept
Love the innovation. Great ideas.
Brilliant! Would love to buy one.
Looks really interesting and some great ideas.cheers
Have they done any testing with an EV to see the difference it makes when towing? I'm really excited to see EV focused caravans make it to market, particularly if they are as fresh a design as this, so many thoughtful touches
Love it, absolutely stunning.
Awesome ideas ,looks like a great concept
I like the idea, not interested in a caravan, but I would love to see something similar for my next van 😄
Really nice, love it should take it in production
Love it. I tow an Eriba and the aerodynamic shape does help when towing. I like the idea of a removable kitchen unit. It saves the weight of having both inside and outside cooking facilities.

Cheers Andrew. I'm with you on the current trend for Separation Toilets :-/
Huge huge side windows and the kitchen at the front, very european, very nice.
I see here a lot of good ideas.

BTW thanks for another great video!

Burstner, take my money I want one.
Love so many of these innovative features, Andrew! All brilliant other than the view-limiting windows. Perhaps would better suit summer touring rather than all-season? Will be interesting where they go with heating, etc. plastic bags, eh? Mmmm?
I actually love the layout.
Very different.. love it 😍👍
Absolutely love this. Currently looking for our first caravan to tow with our EV. Probably wouldn't move the chairs outside though and would prefer chemical toilet
Hello Andrew...thanks for the detailed description of the concept. Things are slowly getting moving in the traditional caravans. What I would be interested to know is: how is it heated and how is it air-conditioned. Obviously gas is out 🙂Have fun exploring Düsseldorf. Greetings, Carsten😎

Absolutely love it - we do have some wzrm days and I would defo take the removeable parts outside :)
Hi there. Like that. Great innovation. The toilet would be worth some thought. Not ready for a bag system yet.
You and me both Steve!
Love it! Want it!
I love the shape - as you say, aerodynamics are more important than ever. I also love the front kitchen. Would the noseweight be high? The fold out bed makes sense too. I'm not sure the Brits will warm to a central seating area though. Well done to Burstner for thinking outside the box.
Love it!
Love it! Electric only is the way to go!
Love it! Hope the rear extension is an option as I wouldn't need it. It's nice to see someone 'thinking out of the box'.
Now that’s a beautiful caravan!
Just stunning 🤩
We were looking for a carpento 410... Now we will wait hoping that Burnster shells this model! We would buy it for sure!🍀🍀
Awesome! I want one! 💙
Love it.
Couple of things I would change. Bigger washroom with toilet. The front storage door should angle to prevent rain from getting inside.
First noteworthy one in a while!
Phantastic, also as a higher camper for tall people, maybe with a Ford.
We would buy it.
the blue tiles are wonderful
Absolutli brilliant
At long last somthing different.. love it

Great idea, I definitely think the washroom needs a rethink, and of course price will be critical
Love it
It's a great concept Andrew. Just missing a big window for daylight.
Love the visual. Would have been interested to see the bedroom extension folded in to have a better understanding of how it looks and stores.

That bed 😍 like it hope it makes it to the NEC in February.
Only thing is there a wardrobe for clothes.
Microwave or oven?
Looks a bit Like a cross between the Basecamp and knaus sports, not a bad thing at all
Epic, good to design move forward
Very attractive. Never owned a towed caravan as I think of them as something old people buy. However, I would consider this style dependent on price point.
That is amazing 😍 think the dinette seating outside is a step too far (especially on soft ground) but love the idea of cooking outside without needing extra portable BBQs etc. 8 hope you get to road rest that one when the settle on a production model 👍🤞 top job bustener
Love it. Will present it to the Basecamp group I'm still with!
Cheers Rog!
Love this
Love it. Some interesting and innovative ideas. Solar panels on the roof ? Certainly would be interested 😁
The caravan looks really beautiful and has alot of great ideas, but for electric vehicles it probably needs to be a bit less wide and maybe inflateable in height as even wit more aerodynamic design and less weight, it still has a huge profile against the wind.
Good point!
Yes! Give it a pop top!
Burstner really are or should be getting a name for themselves as innovators.Love the whole concept and the only thing that needs more thought is allowing that large front locker door to act as as some form of canopy.
Love it, though I would prefer two single beds? Thanks Andrew. Take care.
This one I want!!!❤
Really great concept. But feels like it would suit a couple more than a family. Although I like the idea of our kid having their own den we have lots stored in our little garage and it’s difficult to see where it would go. Also we have a hybrid car and the nose weight is very low for the towbar so I’d be interest to see how having the kitchen at the front affects weight and balance. Overall a super design.
That Bürstner would really suit the EV6. Fingers crossed for it becomes true one day. 🤞
Love it....I would buy but not at any cost
Maybe could use the collapsible inflated concept for the upper side walls to lower roof while driving to improve aerodynamics...and bring it under 2 metres to give classe 1 toll charge on French autoroutes
Very interested, depending on pricing. Toilet must be a cassette however, and there must be a tv bracket / aerial. Fridge / freezer good side. All electric cooking good. Bed size excellent (don’t know why other manufacturers aren’t doing wall to wall beds.😊

Hi Andrew !
It's very handsome and I'm thinking there's something vaguely Basecamp - ish about it - so Swift should be flattered!?
I'm thinking the spoiler, the aerodynamics, interior fittings and particularly the removable locker bags.
That said I'm not nuts on the rechargeable lighting. I'd forget to recharge them / lose them...equally 😉
There is still some time before it comes to the market so if all those mentioned shortcomings are fixed it will be a great one.
I myself honestly hope it will come with a twin axle chassis, regardless of its size: for better departure angle, shorter rear overhang and so for better manoeuvrability and stability of towing.
Love the wood accents and removable storage lockers. Would prefer the lockers to be a lighter neutral colour and not the red accents (limits your decorating colour choices). Like that you still have a bed even with the bed extension in. Like to removable hob - would take it outside, not sure I’d take the sofa outdoors.
