Honda patents possibly the smallest camper in the world

A Chinese company from Guangdong province has filed a patent for a camper concept built on a standard maxi-scooter. Unlike traditional motorhomes based on SUVs or pickup trucks, this vehicle features a compact cabin with four windows mounted on the rear. Dimensions, interior layout, and mounting points are not disclosed in the patent documentation. The sleeping arrangement is expected to be a semi-reclining seat, limiting the concept to short rests rather than overnight stays. If produced, it could become the smallest camper in the world.
