The Vikenze II is a dedicated single berth camper that has been designed for one person to go camping with as much comfort, convenience and ease of use as possible in a compact vehicle that can also do double duty as an economical little car with two seats for travelling in the front only – although there is room for a friend to join for a cuppa when on site! A Tailgate awning is available from Khyam.co.uk with or without sleeping compartments. The Vikenze II is the smallest model in our compact camper-car range. It has been carefully and thoughtfully designed to double up as your everyday car, too – it’s not just a camper-van! The length and width of the vehicle is not that dissimilar to that of a Ford Fiesta, but perhaps the most important dimension is that of the height.
Thanks to our custom built, slimline, electrically operated elevating roof we are able to keep the overall height down to just 1.83 meters. This means that you’ll easily pass under the 2 meter height barriers and also, will fit in most garages too.
Std vehicle specification; Fiat Qubo. 1.4 ltr petrol engine (1.3 litre Multijet diesel engine with latest Euro 6 emission standard option). Body coloured bumpers. Air conditioning. Anti-lock brakes (ABS) with EBD. Power steering with adjustable steering column. Electrically operated windows and door mirrors. Remote control central door locking. Tailgate with heated rear window and wash wipe. Radio with CD player. Driver’s seat height adjustment. Driver’s and passenger airbags.
Porta Potti. The hob is set into a section of the kitchen unit that swings round at night-time to reveal un-rivalled access to the Porta Potti, which is left in place for use. This unique design, in effect, provides more floor space. Fresh water storage is a removable 10 litre ( 2.2 gallon) Jerry can, conveniently accessed through the off-side sliding door with water being electrically pumped to the stainless steel sink and drainer.
The sink/drainer cover doubles up as the table on a island leg. Additional worktop/shelf that can be placed on the front or rear end of the kitchen unit to give useful extra work surface. Three LED interior lights. Fitted and lined curtains. Thermostatically controlled 14 litre Waeco fridge. Full set of floor mats.
Unique Wheelhome cooking and electrical system. Vikenze II has a unique to Wheelhome, Independent all electrical cooking set-up which includes an Induction hob and an oven/grill (built-in microwave is option), which runs from an Inverter, or campsite hook up.
What is an Inverter? A device that cleverly changes 12 volts from the very high capacity auxiliary battery into 230 volts. Therefore many mains voltage appliances can be used to cook your meals, such as the built-in Induction hob, oven/grill, microwave, plus a sandwich maker or kettle.
How long will the battery last? An overnight stop without hook up (cooking an evening meal and breakfast). Vikenze II has a very special automatic and greatly enhanced battery charging system that will re-charge from running the engine at idle, or of course, as you tour around the next day in only an hour or so. An efficient 180watt solar panel is also fitted on the roof to charge the batteries. Note; The auxiliary batteries are entirely independent of the engine-starting battery.
Induction hobs are clean and safe, offering a fast and efficient cooking system with instant heat control. So, Vikenze II has no gas! Meaning no heavy gas bottles to lug about, no naked flames (good news on a hot day) silent, smart – and easy to clean. What’s not to like!
Camping spec; The Vikenze II is a two seater car. When travelling the rear (lounge) seat is “tipped up”. Upon arrival at the campsite the cab seats slide forward and the rear seat lowers down into the space (an easy 10 second job). This seat is rather special as it is extremely comfortable – it even has an adjustable recline, and thus provides what we feel is the most comfortable “camper seat” in it’s class, or pretty much any class!
What Motorhome’s “Out and about live” said “This reclining seat is surprisingly comfortable and it faces another position, so two can be accommodated for a meal. Want more space? Just add a free-standing awning.”
Electrically operated elevating roof is raised effortlessly, incorporates large vents and a smart, drop-down roof storage pod – ideal for folded clothing. Being electrically operated means when lowering the roof you can stop at any point to pull the roof fabric inside.
What Motorhome’s “Out and about live” said “the roof also includes one of the Vikenze’s cleverest – and unique – features: a pair of storage pods that wind down for access. In such a small space it’s this fresh thinking and practical design that makes this tiny camper so usable.”
The roof can be lowered whilst wet and aired later.
