An on-board computer and a GPS (Global Positioning System) calculate the optimal position for the SUN TRACKER.
• A pneumatic suspension, which lowers the vehicle and sets its structure on the tires for improved comfort and a better stabilization in a stationary position.
• A multi-media computer with a wireless Internet connection is also useful where the communication technology is available...

  • Historical and ecological comments during the trip
  • Directory of campground
  • Interlink system that allows getting and leaving information, pictures, video and recommendations for other VERDIER's users
  • Energy consumption dashboard (Optional Child-friendly interface: Education and learning about wise energy consumption)
  • Trip diary on the website at www.verdier.ca/live-diary

• The passenger seat is transformed mechanically into stairs, so that the second stage area can be easily reached from inside.

• The sliding half-door on the passenger side has an integrated folding staircase, which makes the second stage area accessible from outside the vehicle.

• In the second stage area, a dividing wall with a sliding door and multiple windows is made of a thick and expandable fabric.
