It used an electronically lifting upper shell to double the interior space. The Freescape <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/tag\/camper-van\/\">camper van<\/a> is another rig that stands out thanks to its innovative pop-up roof system. It features an inflatable rooftop system that expands the vehicle\u2019s interior and creates a comfortable sleeping area in a truly unconventional way.<\/p>\n<p>The roof tent swivels to one side, rather than sitting directly above the living area, leaving full headroom inside the van at all times. It is for the first time that such a concept for expanding the camper van living space has surfaced and is making way into a production vehicle. The van features a roof that tilts toward the driver\u2019s side, allowing an inflatable tent inside to create a full sleeping space on the rooftop. It takes almost seven minutes for the entire thing to set up. The retraction is much quicker; more on that later.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https:\/\/freescape-vans.com\/\">Freescape<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The new Freescape camper van has a flexible floor plan, which is also starkly different from ideas we have seen over the past. But, it\u2019s frankly the patented pop-up roof that stands out on this all-wheel drive adventure camper van, which is based on the Ford Tourneo Custom and is configurable for the great outdoors and also for city commuting.<\/p>\n<p>s<\/p>\n<p>The side-extending pop-up roof of the Freescape camper van leaves the full amount of headroom inside the van while providing a 79 x 55-in double bed to sleep two people comfortably. It is set up on two support poles for stability. The roof-top tent is designed with multiple valves; one, to make the deflation quicker, and two to help prevent complete failure if one valve were to leak. Once deflated, it is easy to fold the tent back inside and close the roof.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The advantages of a side-expanding roof are manifold. In addition to providing a sleeping space that\u2019s not directly in the van\u2019s roof, hindering the interior headroom, it also functions as an awning, providing shade and weather protection without a separate awning. The camper van has a swivel-out kitchen, which can be aligned below the extended roof awning.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Definitely, Freescape camper van\u2019s inflatable roof is the undeniable difference from the crowd, but the uniqueness of this van doesn\u2019t really stop at the roof. The interior is equally cool. It\u2019s provided with floor rails to move the seats and other hardware around the inside. The seats in the cockpit turn around to face the living area, while those at the back can be lowered to create another bed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>In the middle of the campervan is the multipurpose kitchen block that slides practically around the cabin and even extends out for outdoor cooking. It is provided with an induction cooktop, a worktop extension, and a sink. In addition to this, the sliding swivelling table, which pivots out of the wall, to the middle of the vehicle, functions as a table or work desk.\u00a0 The camper van may be compact, but it comes with shelf-like modules that stack up in the tailgate area. The removable storage modules can be arranged as required or removed to make space for your sporting gear.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The Freescape is an ideal city commuter is the configuration possibilities inside, but it can also be equipped for off-grid adventures with 340 watts of solar power, a 300-Ah lithium battery, and a 3,000-W inverter. The camper van features a diesel camp heater, portable dry toilet, and a 25-liter fresh water tank, which also connects to an outdoor shower. The demo model for now is based on the Ford Tourneo Custom and costs $79,990. The company aims to provide plans for the Volkswagen Transporter and Caravelle in the near future.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/01\/28\/freescape-puts-side-extending-inflatable-pop-up-roof-on-a-ford-camper-van\/\">Freescape puts side-extending inflatable pop-up roof on a Ford camper van<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/\">Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a few days ago, we saw a caravan featuring a pretty unique pop-up roof concept.
