Vanlife continues to establish itself as the lifestyle of choice for adventurers in search of freedom. But with the rise of nomadic telecommuting and the desire to get away for longer, expectations are changing. In 2025, the focus will be on vehicles that are ever more modular, comfortable and autonomous, offering a real home on wheels adapted to every need. What are the major trends that will shape the vanlifers’ experience this year? Find out how to transform your van into an optimized living space.
1. Modularity and space optimization:
No more static layouts! Vanlifers are looking for solutions that allow them to reinvent their space according to the time of day. Convertible bench seating and ingenious storage solutions are becoming essential to maximize the van’s versatility while enhancing comfort.
Sliding benchseat on rails: Flexibility maximum
Our latest innovation, the benchseat on rails, is the perfect answer to the demand for modularity. It slides which allows you to adjust the space according to your needs: more space to store equipment and luggage or to adapt the sleeping area.. Easy to handle, it can be adapted for any use.
Seat swivels: Space optimization
RIB rotating bases maximize cabin space by transforming the front seats into a living area. An ideal solution for creating a dining or work area in a matter of seconds.
2. Improved comfort:
A better quality of life on board is essential. Van travelers want a more ergonomic and cosy layout, with top-of-the-range mattresses, optimized heat and sound insulation, and more efficient heating and ventilation systems for all-season autonomy.
SCOPEMA offers the addition of a 3D mattress overlay for optimum comfort in the bench seat sleeping mode. Integrated directly into the bench seat, its unique orthopedic suspension ensures anatomically optimal support in all positions. Compatible with Altaïr and Neptune benches, its 8mm thickness ensures a massage that benefits the spine.
3. Durable, easy-care materials:
Van maintenance no longer has to be a chore! Easy-care materials, with cotton-based fabric coverings, are gaining in popularity for their robustness, ease of cleaning and reduced impact on the environment.
Stretch-cotton seat-covers : Comfort and ease of maintenance
We’ve also developed sponge covers that are both soft and practical, offering enhanced comfort and simplified maintenance. Ideal for travels where hygiene and ease of cleaning are essential.
This range of 5 colors, made from cotton (80%) and polyester (20%), is suitable for many vehicles, with or without armrests.
