Four Can Sleep Comfortably in this Toyota Prius RV on June 12, 2015



If you enjoy the RV lifestyle, and you have about $50,000 to spend, Car Taka can build a Prius RV for you.

Named the Relax Cabin, this converted Prius is 20 inches longer than the standard-issue Prius. With its 80-inch tall roof, just about anyone can stand up and move freely around this vehicle.

Simple food prep and eating are not an issue in this car, as the Relax Cabin contains a microwave and a fridge. In addition, there are countertop surfaces and seats which make dining even more of a relaxing experience.

Thanks to a built-in compartment in the top of the vehicle where one or two people can lie comfortably, sleeping in this car is almost like sleeping in a home. Four people can sleep in this RV at a time.

Car Taka will build this RV for you according to your preferences starting at around $36,000. Here are some photos of the aptly-named Relax Cabin for you to enjoy:

Why start with a prius? Their claim to fame is mileage, mostly from super aerodynamics. Anything, including roof racks kills that. 4 people and a mini fridge about max out the payload, let alone several hundred lbs of fiberglass and camping supplies.

Why not (Prius RV). I'm sue someone will buy it. I suppose it's an opportunity to give the traditional truck camper industry a new run for their money!

the term "sleep comfortably" must have a different meaning in Japanese than English.

Didn't Pontiac offer something similar for the Aztec?


Looks like it was a bit more "sane", just a canvas tent mostly supported by the hatch itself?
