Ever since Kia looked into the crystal ball of off-road mini-camping with its epic, little PV5 WKNDR concept, the world has waited patiently to see what it would drum up as a retail camper van built aboard its highly flexible Platform Beyond Vehicle (PBV) EV architecture. It waits no more. While Kia has not (yet) developed a fully integrated PBV camper van, it has introduced an officially branded camper kit for the PV5 electric van, which itself launched just a few months ago. Interestingly, the flat-pack IKEA-like (I-Kia?) assemble-yourself kit was developed in the USA, which has not even b

Volkswagen knows what it takes to make a great van, whether we're talking commercial goods-hauler or MPV-cum-weekend camper. Sometimes that means working with the aftermarket to create a versatile van to take on multiple roles with little to no owner conversion necessary, something like the Caddy with flip-up rear bench. VW's latest piece of van kit doesn't even require a flip, permanently dividing the ID. Buzz into a split-personality cargo-MPV that seats a family of five while carrying all means of tools and packages in a discrete compartment. On the downside, it deletes the e-bus' ability

One of the smoothest, most curvaceous hunks of sleep-in fiberglass you'll see this year, the all-new Morningstar series from startup Awaken RV looks to "wake up" an age of higher quality American Midwest-built campers.
