For those of us who regard summer as a season-long string of opportunities to go explore the great outdoors, MINI has unveiled a trio of cars tantamount to a campsite on wheels. The Countryman ALL4 Camper is essentially a MINI Countryman featuring a roof-mounted specialize tent, the upper half of which can simply be folded out of its storage box; the Clubvan camper is equipped with a sleeping area for one person and an extendable kitchenette complete with stove and chest fridge; and finally the Cowley caravan is built for two, appointed with a twin-ring gas stove, fridge and sink. It’s all powered by 230-volt connection and an onboard battery, which is charged using a solar module. None of the vehicles will ever make it to sale, but automotive outdoor enthusiasts can check out the images in the gallery below for inspiration.
