【Light Camping Car】Maybe you can buy it for 2,390,000 yen!? A “moving vacation home” equipped with a full-fledged cooler air conditioner
This year, I want to enjoy a truly adventurous road trip. What I'm interested in is the “Resort Duo CAFE LATTE II” based on the Daihatsu Hijet Cargo/Atore. I will explore the charm of a vehicle that gently blurs the line between daily life and the outdoors.
A comfortable 12V cooler that works even when the engine is off
The Daihatsu Hijet Cargo, a lightweight camper "Resort Duo CAFE LATTE II" based on the Atrai. Its main appeal is that it comes standard with a 12V cooler "One Cool21" that can operate solely on the sub-battery without starting the engine. Under the mattress, a 100A lithium-ion battery is stored, which can reliably store electricity generated during driving from a 40A charger.
Since the air conditioning can be used while parked, it provides a quiet and cool interior space during summer lunch breaks, rests at construction sites, or while waiting for kids after their club activities. Additionally, insulation has been installed in side panels, rear panels, ceiling trim, and the floor, designed to suppress heat during summer and improve heating efficiency in winter.
Even as a light camper, it offers an environment that is "cool in summer and warm in winter," allowing for worry-free use from short naps to proper overnight stays in the car.

Transforms into a "mobile living room" with face-to-face seating and a layout for two to sleep
The interior layout features opposing seats that can accommodate up to two people sleeping. The newly adopted opposing seats, along with a secondary seat that can be deployed one by one, allow for flexible arrangements according to the scene. You can enjoy lunch facing each other, do PC work, or read, making the interior of the light van usable like a "mobile living room."
By deploying the secondary seat, the passenger capacity increases to four, catering to everyday pickups and family outings. At bedtime, by switching to a flat bed space, casual trips such as short weekend getaways or an overnight stay in a parking lot near a tourist spot become achievable.

You can choose from base vehicles and price ranges, making it a user-friendly light 4-number vehicle for everyday use.
The base vehicles can be selected from Daihatsu Hijet Cargo and Atrai. Various grades and drivetrains are widely lined up.
The standard model of Hijet Cargo Cruise (2WD/CVT) is priced starting from 2,398,000 yen, making it a realistic price range for a light 4-number camper van. Furthermore, 4WD versions and turbo grades, as well as higher grades like Atrai RS, are also available. The configuration makes it easy to choose according to local road conditions, frequency of snowy roads, and daily usage.
With dimensions of 3395mm in length, 1475mm in width, and 1890mm in height, its size is suitable for typical multi-story parking lots and coin parking areas, making it manageable as a light van for regular use.

The option to choose seat fabric for a "personalized version" provides a sense of security with artisan finishing.
The ability to choose the color and material of the seats to match your preference is also attractive. There is a rich lineup of materials popular with pet-owning households, including vinyl leather and textured polyester fabric (heathered). Artisan seat craftsmen handle the sewing, creating an interior that feels special, different from regular lightweight vans.
Furthermore, due to Stage21's commitment, not only is the visible interior crafted with care, but inspections such as strength checks of the vehicle body and durability tests are also conducted. The lightweight camper is built meticulously even in places that aren't visible, allowing you to enjoy long drives and overnight stays with peace of mind.

Maintaining the ease of handling of a lightweight van, the "Resort Duo CAFE LATTE II" is equipped with a cool 12V cooler that remains comfortable even when the engine is off, insulation construction, and a face-to-face seat layout. It's truly a small getaway that you can head out to whenever the mood strikes.
