Hi everyone, I’m Hank. At the campervan show held in Germany in August 2023, Ford launched the latest generation of campervan Nugget . This campervan is not only a gasoline-electric hybrid campervan , but also has four-wheel drive. It is simply the best in the campervan industry. It exists like a unicorn. Its roof lift method and interior configuration are completely different from the current mainstream campers. It even has the original parking air conditioner. If you are interested in knowing more, let’s continue reading and start with the most special one. Let’s take a look at the design of the rear of the car. There is a long storage closet on the right rear of the rear. This is very rare for storage in self-propelled campers. The faucet under the cabinet has a heating and cooling function. Unfortunately, the capacity of the heated water container is only The 3-liter retractable shower head that has been taken out from the storage cabinet can be connected in one second and can be used immediately. If you want to take a shower today, you can easily take a hot bath by attaching the shower head suction cup. This suction cup feels super easy to use. It is suitable for friends who like to drive outdoors. You can simply rinse it beforehand to prevent sediment from being brought into the car. However, let me remind you that the shower at the rear of the car is optional . You need to pay extra to order it. The corners of the storage cabinet are designed with arc chamfers to look like it. It’s a very comfortable long storage cabinet that can hang about 5-6 coats. What’s great about the design is that the cabinet door can be accessed indoors and outdoors, making it easier to use. There is a grooming mirror and a hidden behind the door panel. The step ladder is used to facilitate the use of the upper and lower parts . I think it is very smart to store the ladder here. After all, the ladder will not be used all the time in the camper. Space is really precious. There is space inside to put a small suitcase . It is not a problem and the simple mezzanine classification is convenient for sorting and storing in campers of the same length. I have never seen such a large-capacity storage cabinet. I like the bottom of the storage cabinet. It is sad that it cannot be used for storage. This is the pipe room for circuits. But looking at it from another perspective , if there are any problems today, you can easily check the line. Next to it is an L-shaped kitchen table, which has 20% more usable space than the previous generation. Because the kitchen is at the rear of the car, you can cook independently. I think the use of the space is very different compared to the general camper configuration . Because you can stand in the car, it is more like being in the car. At home, I even
think it is a bit more like a Nakajima design. While cooking or washing here, you can chat with friends in front and serve food. It is very convenient and you can just reach over. So in terms of space planning, I think it is very powerful . The living room and kitchen are separated from each other. I quite like this space design , which is different from the current mainstream camper vans. The kitchen storage system does not use push-button switches to prevent the car from opening on its own while driving. There are two buttons inside the cabinet. The material of the ring is used to fix the position of the hidden ladder. The installation is very simple and intuitive. It can be installed in one second and is convenient for bunk beds. However, it blocks the use of the refrigerator on the left, which is a bit awkward. The lower position can be placed for a move. Toilet , but this toilet is optional. The space behind it is where the 33-liter clean water tank and the 3-liter hot water tank are located. The refrigerator uses a drawer-type design. I like the display on the nose very much. I think it is much more practical. The drawer above the refrigerator can be used. It's good to store spoons, forks, chopsticks and other tableware, but the capacity of the refrigerator is really too small. I feel like it can be full just by putting two or three cans of drinks. The capacity of 33 liters seems really too small. I want to use it for two days and one night. It may not be enough for traveling. Although there are partitions in the refrigerator that can be split , I think they are just for decoration. I think if I use them, I will take them all apart to increase the use space. Unfortunately , there are no layers in the refrigerator for refrigeration and freezing. The adjusted temperature is the opposite of the level 1-5 cabinet. Unfortunately, it is not the storage space , but the place where the tile cylinder is placed. The cabinet on the right is the compressor of the refrigerator. On the left, this is the space where the gas barrel is stored. So here is the place. It's not big , but I think I will still put an extra set of fire extinguishers in this place. There is a small storage space behind the L-shaped countertop in the kitchen. There is a 230-volt AC outlet above it, which means that the car has the hope of providing an inverter. When it is introduced to Taiwan in the future, it can be changed to 100V AC. There is also a 230-volt socket and a 12-volt socket in the front . Let’s take a look at what kind of kitchen utensils are equipped with a double-port gas stove and a folding hand sink. It is basically a million -level camper. It comes standard with a flat L-shaped tabletop that can be stored and carved. It can be used as a desk or for other purposes. Directly above the kitchen is the upper bunk in the middle of the building. There are large windows for ventilation on the left and right sides. There is also a large window on the front for ventilation. The window is open on three sides in total. The length of the bed is two meters and the width is 1.25 meters. It uses a latex mattress. There is also a reading light directly above the roof, which can provide lighting in the car at night. If you want to increase the space in the car, just put Use hooks on both sides of the bed to hang it up to a height of about 180 centimeters. This method is different from Volkswagen's hydraulic rod design , but it is also quite simple. However, petite women should pay more attention. After all, the hooks are on the roof of the car. The one shown above is the multi-region layout jointly developed by Ford and the camper van company Westfalia. The kitchen, living room and sleeping area are independent. This extremely planned space makes us more flexible in use and can accommodate 4 people living in the car at the same time. However, because it requires With the roof open , you can't stay low-key in the parking lot. After all, it's too obvious. There is a pair of newly upgraded sound systems on the back seat, which is not available in the previous generation. This small space can be used to store toilet paper or small kitchen utensils. It is very convenient. Next, we will introduce this 7-inch touch panel, which can control various equipment of the camper. It can manage the battery power of the air conditioner and heater in the car and the lights in the car. It can also monitor the capacity of the clean water tank and the sewage tank, and you can choose whether to use it. The water is heated and the lighting is so detailed that you can adjust the different color brightness and color temperature of each area. The function of the level meter can be used to observe the style of the car. You don't have to worry about unevenness when sleeping. However, it is only for observation and cannot adjust the angle of the car. It’s a pity that the self-made 5G connector can connect up to 10 devices. This means that when updating the firmware, you don’t need to go back to the original factory to install it or remove the SD card. You can directly update online through the QR Code , but it seems that it can only be done when the vehicle is started. The panel can not only be synchronized with the center console of the front seat , but can also be connected with the mobile phone APP to operate the above system. It is very convenient. Wireless charging is provided directly above the storage cabinet. You can put your mobile phone or Airpod here. Even if you are not charging , don’t waste the space here. It is very easy to use. There is a triangular storage cabinet in the sliding door. It is a deep shape and you can put some long objects here . The space is large, so be sure to make good use of it. The width of the walkway from the living room area to the kitchen area is about 32 centimeters. However , there is a heating outlet below the storage cabinet. Since the storage cabinet is eliminated in the living room area, it looks larger. The width from the entrance to the bottom is about 136 cm. The original factory provides a second sliding door for about NT$20,000 . However, the original folding table will be repositioned on the ground. Today, if you want to adjust the space of the seat, you only need to pull it from below and pass through the track under the seat. You can easily slide it with one hand to operate the indirect light under the seat. The atmosphere at night must be very warm. It is also more convenient when looking for things. There is also a USB charging hole next to it. The seat also has a heating function. This function makes me think of saying If you go to high-altitude mountainous areas in winter, you can just lie down on a warm sofa without using an electric blanket.
It would be a waste if it cannot be stored under the chair. You can put some sunshades and other small items here. Usually I will put it under the chair. It may also be a good choice to put some less commonly used items or some heavier items such as extra mineral water, drinks, beer , Caswans cans, spare parts, etc., or even hide them in the room . Here is the place to put them. How to convert a three-seat sofa into a bed. The headrest above is also part of the bed. There is no need to consider the storage of the headrest. The whole process is easy and effortless. In fact, one person can complete it. My own T2 camper van sofa bed is also converted into a bed in this way. But because this method will not be a complete flat bed, there will be two gaps in the bed , and there will be some height differences. It will be more difficult for people who are sensitive to bed picks to sleep. Another mode can be used to separate the main driver's seat and the passenger seat . Each turn 180 degrees to form a sofa bed. It feels like watching TV dramas on the bed at home. It will be very enjoyable. The length of the bed is 190 cm and the width is 120 cm . The steering adjustment of the driver's seat is also very smooth and will not get stuck. I personally like it. I am really looking forward to sleeping in this mode. It feels quite comfortable. However, there is a hole between the driver and the passenger. It feels like I have to find something to stuff it. There is a heating vent behind the passenger. This is definitely better for children who are afraid of the cold or for their significant other on high-altitude mountains. The thermal bag is easy to use, the multi- driving seat is equipped with a 13-inch tablet, and it uses a photographer's audio, video, infotainment and video system. The function and budget performance are twice as powerful as those of the third generation, and it is equipped with wireless Android auto and apple Carplay. There is a small channel in the front for convenience. When entering and exiting the living room area at the back, don’t underestimate this passage. In the hot and humid environment in winter, trust me , you will never want to get wet in the rain before getting in the car. Although there is no storage cabinet on the left side of the living room area, the folding table in the car is retained. It is also very convenient to do a simple office in the car. You can see that the upper window can be ventilated to the outside without being overlooked. It has also been changed from the previous curtains to blackout roller blinds. It is a pity that they are not multi-stage , but think about it . It will also be easier to clean later. Our inner side is the storage position for the outdoor table. Placing the outdoor table in this position really minimizes the space . Whether it is storing or taking it out, it can be easily accessed by pressing a button . The convenient chair is stored at the rear of the car. The original factory will provide two chairs. You can also put them in this position. Questioning other folding chairs, I think it is a good position that can be used. There is a small detail here . It is to step into the car. It is not a complete plane but has a height. If I were to put some simple slippers here, maybe a fire extinguisher would be a good use of space . Next, let’s take a look at some parts of the car’s performance. The car weighs 3.2 tons and is long . The car is 5 meters wide and two meters wide. So what Ford is introducing this time is the PHEV plug-in gasoline-electric model. Let’s briefly introduce the PHEV plug-in gasoline-electric model. It can be plugged in and refueled. It can be driven on pure electric power for short distances and can be driven on long distances. Gasoline-assisted driving , so you don’t have to worry about insufficient charging stations even when you go to Huadong. It can use a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter gasoline engine and an electric motor with a horsepower output of 230 horsepower. The battery pack has a capacity of 11.8 kilowatts and is plug-in. A PHEV with a gasoline-electric system can travel about 50 kilometers. In addition, you can choose a 350-watt solar panel to charge the battery, which costs about NT$10,000. In addition to the benefits of the original thin solar panel being integrated , you don’t need to add another car to the car. The price is so you don’t have to worry about the height when entering the parking lot. In addition, the optional price of the car side tent is 35,000. The current Nugget gas-electric hybrid board is about NT$2.62 million at the current exchange rate. There will also be a 168-horsepower diesel version in the future. It is very likely that a pure electric car version will be launched to talk about my point of view. The charm of camper vans has never been about power performance or performance. It is mainly about walking suites and the characteristics of being able to go on the go. You can take your family on a trip and then relive it at the same time. This family-friendly machine shares the same bed . It can adopt a brand-new chassis, has an independent rear suspension, an 8-speed automatic transmission, and a four-transmission system. When driving, it not only has the maneuverability and comfort of a car , but also has the ability to be used off-road. I think the combination of capabilities , functions and performance is simply a plug-in. Although Nugget's original refrigerator only has 30 CMONS, which is too small , it will never affect Nugget 's original parking popularity option , because after all, this is absolute. The advantage is because in Taiwan, I believe friends who have campers or fast cars know the importance of car rental popularity. Because Taiwan’s hot and humid environment does not have the popularity of car rentals, it is really difficult to sleep in a car . There is another option. You only need to purchase another 10,000 yuan, and your registered heart can be divided into zones , so that your front and back seats can be controlled independently. I think 10,000 yuan is worth the additional purchase, and I will not say that it will be limited to the configuration in the car. The mentality of the original factory is completely different from the imported new top-of-the-road campers from Ville in Taiwan, that is, Volkswagen 's California and Ice Room's Marco Polo. So I think if Ford's trucks are distributed in Taiwan, it will give everyone one more choice. That would be really great If you see that I am very excited about the Ford Nugget camper van , then please share this video more and follow the instructions. Maybe you will have the opportunity to import this camper van to Taiwan . I will add the information and post it in the description below. I’ll download it for everyone. If there is any new information, I will also send it to you in the form of an e-newsletter. Thank you for watching. Bye bye.
