3 tips for more space in the Renault Kangoo Camper
In a mini camper van like the Renault Kangoo, it is particularly important to make the most of the available space. For you, this means: opt for minimalism and limit yourself to the essential accessories. A rule of thumb: never pack the trunk completely full. During the trip, you will never stow everything as neatly as before and will always end up needing more space 😉.
Think about the following points when optimizing space:
- Storage space under the bed: Integrate a storage area under the bed of your vehicle. Here you can transport larger items such as chairs or sports equipment.
- Lighting: Use well-placed LED lights to illuminate the room. This visually enlarges it.
- Keep things tidy: Keep the interior tidy by regularly tidying up and removing unnecessary items.
