The Marco Polo family of Mercedes welcomes a new member. The Mercedes T-Class becomes the access model to the Marco Polo line. The new Mercedes T-Class Marco Polo is positioned as a very interesting camper van that not only stands out for its comforts. It also boasts design.
The Mercedes T-Class
is ready to enter the fascinating world of camper vans. Mercedes has decided to incorporate the T-Class as a new member of the growing Marco Polo family. The new compact German van that has recently arrived on the market is making its debut. A new and very interesting Marco Polo module for the T-Class.
Mercedes has opted for a solution similar to that seen in the new Dacia Jogger Camperiz that we have talked about these days. Instead of completely transforming the interior of the T-Class into a motorhome, the brand has designed a module to be installed in the rear. More specifically in the trunk. And in this way have many amenities to enjoy a getaway to nature.
The keys of the Marco Polo module for the Mercedes T-Class
The Marco Polo module makes it possible to transformation of the Class T in a camper modest but with the necessary equipment to get away from the big city and not miss anything. At night the interior becomes a spacious bed for two people. The available sleeping area is two meters long by 1.15 meters wide. Some elements to darken the windows, a mosquito net and some window pockets to store objects, complete the rest area. Like the bed frame, the mattress can be folded. In this way, when its use is not necessary, it will be stored in the trunk. This is key, since it allows the rear seats to continue to be available.
If we open the huge tailgate of the T-Class we will find kitchen cabinet (optional). Includes a sink with a 12 liter water tank easily accessible, a 15 liter refrigerator drawer capacity and a small gas stove. It also has several storage drawers for, for example, cutlery. The set is completed with camping chairs and a table that can be installed both inside and outside.
The installation of the kitchen furniture and the bed of the Marco Polo module is simple. The fixation is done in the lashing rings of the trunk. Two people can remove or put the module in a few simple steps.
