    I love this one. I especially like the solar aspect. As to the warning labels - are you certain this wasn't meant to be shipped to the States ? I thought we would be the only people that would require something like that. 🤣

      I agree. Americans need warning labels all over the place bc of the horrid lawyers wanting to sue over every little thing. Broken system run by lawyers only to benefit lawyers I think. Nice van though, thank you for the tour.

    I bought a brand new Wildax Europa so my tip is don't be impressed by the electrics on this one. Yes, It's good the lithium batteries and inverter but the quality of the van is very poor at a high price. If you look closely, the latches on the drawers are flimsy and break the drawers fly open and the mechanisms are weak. The very first day that I had my brand-new van I put the supports in to make the bed in the back and it broke as soon as I kneeled on it. I've now got a Hymer motorhome and it's a completely different league. These are not quality vehicles. I could give more details. Beware

    300W from the roof is not very good, but great to see a manufacturer making a tiny step to all electric (enough amateurs do it already!). Nevertheless, even with the big battery packs, £99k for a campervan is plainly ridiculous. Just watched a vid of a guy going around the Motorhome Show looking for

    No extras with this price. I would add an heat pump ie an air conditioner unit. Also an omni antenna might be handy for the UK. Do like it. Shame it won’t come with All Terrain tyres. I’ve put them on mine. Grrrrrreat upgrade.

    That solar is so under powered you might as well not bother. Its not an off grid vehicle! You need to be running the engine to charge, and that's a lousy way to generate electricity. I have a slightly bigger van with 800W on the roof, but you can have big skylights everywhere if you want power!

  • @erbterb
    @erbterb 4 месяца назад +1

    300W solar is not massive, not monumental, grand nor epic. It is underwhelming in certain conditions for a modern camper not in dreds, shari and not having showered like Steve Jobs did.
    But 3,6kW inverter is enough.
