The 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 was converted into a pop-top camper by Sportsmobile for a client in Alberta. The 144-inch wheelbase provides plenty of space for the conversion, especially with the addition of a Penthouse Top. A Thule TracRac and side ladder provide access to the pop-top sleeping area. The top is power-operated and can be expanded into multiple configurations. Inside the tent is a removable bed that lies atop a storage area with 36 inches of clearance. An Espar Airtronic heater provides forced air using the van’s fuel and power supply without the van having to be on to produce heat. The van is also equipped with a 110-volt system with a Magnum 200-watt power inverter as well as a 110-volt exterior outlet.

The seats are upholstered in grey leather, and the interior is done with Sportsmobile “extreme weather” finishes.
