What fits
Bed
You’ll need a short or folding bed: there’s 122 cm between the wheel arches and 157 cm of maximum width.
How we work it out: With 1.36 m or more between the wheel arches, a transverse bed fits (the same rule the editor uses).
Lengthwise bed
With 1.81 m of cargo length, a 190 cm bed doesn’t fit lengthwise: you’ll need a short or folding bed.
How we work it out: You need at least 1.95 m of cargo length: a 190 cm mattress plus 5 cm of clearance.
Standing up
It’s just for sleeping: 1.25 m of height, unlined.
How we work it out: Standing from 1.80 m of interior height; sitting without stooping from 1.30 m.
Through the sliding door
A unit up to 62 cm wide and 110 cm high will go through.
How we work it out: The clear opening of the sliding door, from the manufacturer’s spec sheet.
Weight
With 650 kg of payload, allow for insulation, lining, furniture, water and people. The app adds it up as you design.
How we work it out: Approximate payload of the base version: it changes with the gross vehicle weight, the engine and the equipment. The figure that counts is the one on your registration papers.
The closest layout
No layout fits in full. The closest, “Micro camper”, places 8 of its 9 items: open it and adjust the rest by hand.
