This electric tiny camper on three wheels that comes with a tent, kitchen, and awning.

Elektro Frosch - which translates to "electric frog" from German to English - is a Berlin-based company that specializes in electric vehicles. Not like Teslas, but like tuk-tuks, scooters, and tiny three-wheeled camper "vans."

While the trike may seem unassuming, it packs all the same features as any other Mercedes-Benz Sprinter camper vans: there's a sleeping area, an outdoor kitchen, and an awning for shaded lounging. But unlike other vans currently available on the market, this three-wheeled camper is fully-electric, powered by a 72-volt battery, and significantly cheaper than other campervans.

The trike that the camper is built on can also be purchased independently without the camping modules.

Keep scrolling to learn about the unassumingly small camper, which currently ranges from $4,377 to $5,475, depending on the model:
