Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles presented nine vehicles with different conversion types to journalists, including camping modules, bike and dog transport solutions. The company works with several specialist firms to keep the vehicle serviceable as a whole. Among the solutions shown are three child seats side by side in a Caddy, a suspension lift of several centimetres (conversion price around 70,000–80,000 CZK) and a portable battery station instead of a fixed solar panel. Renting a camping module from Egoé costs about 550 CZK per day; according to the dealer, roughly six out of ten customers who rent it once or twice eventually buy it.
