The Auriga Explorer principle

Freedom

With less than 3.5 tons, outstanding off-road capability and container-compatible design, the Auriga Explorer offers limitless driving fun over every pass and into every small town - no matter where your adventure takes you.

Room

In just a few moments, your compact off-roader with pneumatically extendable elements is transformed into a spacious retreat with the living comfort of a much larger vehicle.

Comfort

High-quality materials and well thought-out details transform the Auriga Explorer into your home away from home. The first-class construction offers optimum weather protection, while the elegant interior exceeds the highest expectations.

With Auriga Explorer, we combine the best of two worlds: the freedom of a compact four-wheel drive pickup truck and the comfort of a luxurious expedition vehicle. We don't just build vehicles, we create the basis for unforgettable adventures on and off the beaten track.

      Our prototype had to withstand quite a lot. We use driving tests to ensure that driving fun is not neglected. The pneumatics of our pop-up roof were also put through their paces.

FAQs

What material is the cabin made of?

The outer shell of our cabins is made of GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic). This high-quality composite material combines glass fibers with a special plastic matrix and offers decisive advantages: The lightweight construction keeps the overall weight of the vehicle below 3.5 t, while the material also ensures outstanding strength and stability.

GRP is highly weather-resistant, does not rust and is protected against UV radiation and temperature extremes - ideal for overland travel in a wide range of climates. The natural insulating properties improve living comfort in all weathers.

Particularly practical is the ease of care with minimal maintenance and simple repair options. Last but not least, GRP impresses with its durability, as it retains its outstanding properties over many years - for lasting driving pleasure with your Auriga Explorer.

Which base vehicles can I choose from?

We produce the Auriga Explorer on the basis of the Ford Ranger and VW Amarok. Please contact us for other models.

How many berths does the Auriga Explorer offer?

Our vehicle offers flexible sleeping options for up to four people.There are two standard sleeping berths in the alcove, which can be folded up independently of each other. This makes it possible to use the living area below, even if a fellow traveler still wants to rest. The two additional sleeping berths, which can be created by simply converting the seating group in the rear of the vehicle, provide additional sleeping comfort.

Where are the vehicles produced?

The Auriga Explorer is manufactured and assembled in Germany.
