The creation you see in the adjacent images is the Toyota Prius Camper Van, a vehicle that was unveiled at the Tokyo Auto Salon. The vehicle shocked the audience -in a negative way - with its design, but there’s more to this development than just troubled looks.
The Prius was fitted with a fibre reinforced plastic shell that increases its length by 520mm (20 inches) and its height by 560mm (22 inches). In the real world, this translates into the fact that the vehicle allows two passengers to sleep in the back and another two to sleep above.

Created by an aftermarket developer based in Nagano, Japan, the Prius Camper Van is not just a concept, already being available for order. We know, you’re going to wonder why anybody would want to be seen in such a horrible car, but there might be an answer to this question.

While we can’t deny that we’d have to wear masks while driving this vehicle, we like the idea of spending one comfortable night inside a car, so we’d at least be curious to test this odd creature...
