Original source: mapion.co.jp

In Brief

At Japan Camping Car Show 2026, Direct Cars unveiled the lightweight Nomadoa caravan with a pop-up roof and motorcycle ramp, plus the Aquila360N. The RT-35T caravan with a patented folding drawbar also premiered.

The Japan Camping Car Show 2026 is being held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba from January 30 to February 2. Direct Cars presented two new caravans: the lightweight Nomadoa and the Aquila360N.

Nomadoa

Nomadoa is Direct Cars' first lightweight caravan, built on the "Compact Nomadism" concept. It features compact dimensions for narrow roads, a pop-up roof, a kitchen with sink and stove, a refrigerator, foldable beds, and an optional household air conditioner. A rear ramp allows loading a small motorcycle.

Aquila360N

The Aquila360N boasts a high-rigidity body made using automotive aluminum stamping technology. Equipment includes smart dimming windows, a power rear door, and automatic stabilizers.

RT-35T

Also on display is the RT-35T caravan, designed from scratch to Japanese standards with a focus on safety through weight distribution calculations and 3D aerodynamic design. A patent was granted in December 2025 for a folding A-frame drawbar that reduces overall trailer length by 900 mm when parked.

At the Tokyo Camping Car Show 2026, Route Six unveiled the Conffy II POP, a converted Daihatsu Atrai with a pop-up roof that adds two sleeping berths.
