Why Carbon in Campervan Construction?

Why carbon in campervan construction? – Lightness, stability & advantages. Carbon in campervan construction is not just a trend – it's a real revolution. Especially in the premium and off-road segment.

Carbon in modern campervan construction isn't a luxury trend, but a necessary innovation – especially in the off-road sector.

Material Advantages

The material offers significant weight savings – about 50% less than steel – while maintaining extreme strength.

This allows VANYX to stay under the 3.5-ton limit despite full 4×4 equipment.

Practical Applications

VANYX integrates carbon fibers in critical components:

Rear Extensions

Light and stable, optimal for off-road use.

Hoods

Weight savings at a strategically important location.

Structural Components

Stability during vibrations and extreme temperatures.

Why Is This Important?

The material offers:

  • Stability during off-road driving
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Temperature resistance

Strategic Advantage

Lightweight construction enables the combination of three requirements:

  1. All-wheel technology – permanent 4×4 drive
  2. Autonomous systems – batteries, solar, water tanks
  3. Luxury equipment – comfort without compromise

Without carbon, this combination would be technically difficult to achieve – at least not under 3.5 tons.

Conclusion

Carbon isn't a toy for tech enthusiasts. It's the technical foundation for a vehicle that combines off-road capability, autonomy, and luxury.
