Two off-road campers: Supertramp Paragon on Ford and Big Sur on Sprinter
Original source: Netzwelt

In Brief

Supertramp introduced the Paragon off-road camper based on the Ford F-350, priced at about 170,000 euros. Meanwhile, the Big Sur expedition camper on a Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 is available for long-term travel.

Two approaches to off-road campers

Supertramp has introduced the Paragon off-road camper based on the Ford F-350. The base price is about 170,000 euros, comparable to a well-equipped Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4. The manufacturer keeps the price down by offering a minimal base configuration; all additional options are paid separately. The camper is designed for four people.

At the same time, the Big Sur expedition camper based on a 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 170 EXT 4×4 has appeared on the market. It is intended for long-term autonomous travel and is equipped with a heating system for all-season use, a 630 Ah lithium battery, an additional 185-liter fuel tank, and a hidden winch. The price is in the upper segment of the tuned all-wheel-drive Sprinter market.
