OFFROAD CHALLENGE
LITTLE RIG , BIG HEART !

Good things come in small packages , or so they say . But there ’ s no denying that one of the most appealing things about hybrid vans is the lateral thinking involved . Typically , they have a much smaller on-road footprint in comparison to a full caravan , and therefore the manufacturer is required to get creative in order to provide all the comforts and conveniences in a van of anywhere from 13 to 15ft , or even less . The Mars 15 Premium is a good example .
With its 15ft length , this singleaxle hybrid employs a couple of common tricks to maximise internal living space , while also offering a suite of useful storage options . The result : a compact van that punches above its weight in terms of living and storage space .
But that doesn ’ t mean it skimps on other essential features . In fact , the ‘ Premium ’ in the name refers to the fact this Mars 15 was fitted with the company ’ s top-end features pack for this van .
