Honda Element E-Camper

Ursa Minor has set out to replace the void left by the Volkswagen Camper. The company makes pop-up campers for the Honda Element. Ursa Minor can sell you a new Honda Element with the ECAMPER installed, or kits to retrofit your Element if you have a sunroof. The base ECAMPER will add at least $4300 to the price of your new Element, while the kits cost the same amount. There are a few extras available, like color-matched paint and Yakima or Thule rack mounts that can add to the price.
Ursa says its camper will sleep two people by simply popping the latch and climbing up. It features a 85″x50″ mattress with LED reading lamps for lighting. The shell of the camper is made from carbon fiber and lifted with gas struts. We think the best part of this camper may be the time saved not fiddling with tent stakes and chasing down the tent when it turns into a kite. For more details, check out Ursa Minor’s site below.
