Volkswagen develops inflatable kitchen for minivan
Original source: Автопилот

Volkswagen has announced inflatable modules for cooking and relaxation designed for the California Beach camper based on the Multivan T7. The development was carried out together with the startup Stuff Bubble. The kitchen weighs less than 10 kg, attaches to standard rails, and can be used inside and outside the vehicle. The sleeping module converts from single to double, accommodating up to four people. Installation and removal take a few minutes. This is currently a concept; a production decision will be made after the show. Volkswagen will also present the ID. California Cruise electric camper concept based on the ID. Buzz.
