Radical BMW-sponsored travel trailer concept

Most innovations in travel trailer design are actually reflections on the past, such as the Airstream and the Shasta Airflyte. We can’t remember the last time we saw a genuine leap forward, so our hearts leapt when we spotted the Mehrzeller caravan concept.

Mehrzeller means “multi cell” and it’s building a buzz at the giant Caravan Salon Düsseldorf, Europe’s biggest RV show. This particular travel trailer is the creation of Christian Freissling and Theresa Kalteis, two designers from Graz University of Technology in Austria, and they’ve got backing from some of the biggest names in European industry.

More details are on the new RV design blog, squob.com.

Good thing BMW isn't in the RV business!

Wow...something that actually makes the AzteX6 look somewhat attractive next to it!

You know...the interesting thing about the Aztek is that when it came out, it was the most detailed and daring design to come out of GM since the 90s. I would give them credit for that...and I guess I'm pretty slow since that I finally realized that there were some similarities between the Aztek and the Pontiac Firebird.

Here's a "daring" question...
Which car do you guys think would become a classic in the future? Aztek or X6?

bmw's are great cars but the X6 is horrible looking.

amazinBimmer the X6 is joke...have you seen it in real life? It looks deformed, BMW needs to relax a little bit with these designs. Those who choose to argue with me just look at the picture above.

Thank you

I like RVs, but about this design instead of showing some bright ideas of providing more space it’s horribly showing how space is lost with this design.
