Searching for summer in world’s coolest campervan

The Nimbus campervan has eveything you need to get the best out of the muddiest British campsite this summer.

Nimbus is a hybrid electric people carrier with a roof-mounted tent for conversion to campervan duties. With styling that combines elements of the iconic Airstream trailer and VW kombi van with the rugged appearance of an overland truck, the Nimbus is highly original and capacious alternative to anything on the market today.

Unlike SUVs, Nimbus has panoramic windows, a light and airy interior and a large rack and roof box as standard.

Nimbus™ has a 130Kw (180hp) lithium-ion battery powered motor charged by a micro generator that delivers the equivalent of over 200 mpg.

This is a campervan that does not scrimp on creature comforts. The dash features a removable internet-enabled touchscreen and passengers get a fridge big enough to hold eight cans of drink.

However you travel, tread lightly

The ETA has been voted to be an ethical company like no other in Britain for the second year running by the Good Shopping Guide.

The ETA was established in 1990 as an ethical provider of green, reliable travel services. Twenty-six years on, it continues to offer cycle insurance, travel insurance and breakdown cover while putting concern for the environment at the heart of all it does.

The Tricycle House is pedal-powered campervan that’s small in size but large on creature comforts. The design boasts its own bath and shower.

Each piece of the tiny house is made from lightweight plastic that has been cut with a CNC router, scored, folded and welded into shape. The polypropylene plastic bodywork can expand like an accordion to create more space, and connect to other houses. The translucent plastic allows the interior to be lit by the sun during the day or street lamps at night. The sink, stove, and bathtub are collapsible and stow away at one end of the tiny home.
