Compact camping and daily driving in the 5.48-meter Dreamer Cap Easy

A vehicle you can drive to work, use for grocery shopping, drop the kids off at sports practice, and... head out in on weekends and holidays. The new Dreamer Cap Easy makes it all possible, staying delightfully compact at 5.48 metres long and under 2 metres high.

Why choose a compact campervan?

Compact campervans are popular with campers who want to experience the freedom of a campervan without purchasing a large motorhome. This might be because they don’t travel often enough to justify the cost, or because they don’t want the dimensions of a campervan, low-profile, overcab or integrated motorhome holding them back while on holiday. A compact campervan offers flexibility, letting you easily visit a village or a large city. In addition, these campervans are often multifunctional and can easily double as an everyday vehicle.

What are the dimensions of the Dreamer Cap Easy?

The Renault Trafic with a standard 130 hp engine serves as the base. The campervan measures 5.48 metres in length and 1.95 metres in width—nicely compact! We saw the Cap Easy for the first time at the Caravan Salon 2026 in Düsseldorf. There, Dreamer drew particular attention to the camper’s low overall height: just 1.99 metres.

A campervan that stays under 2.00 metres offers many advantages:

  • You can enter most multi-storey car parks, which is convenient both in daily life and on holiday.
  • Height barriers at nature reserves, beaches or supermarket car parks—typically set at a maximum height of 2.00 metres—are no longer an obstacle.
  • The campervan often fits easily under a standard carport.
  • On many toll roads, you won’t trigger the higher class for vehicles and campers over 2 metres tall.

Please note: adding an awning, solar panel or roof bars will take you above that 2.00-metre threshold.

How is the Dreamer Cap Easy laid out?

The Cap Easy has everything on board for a camping holiday. Up front there are four seats: a rear bench with two belted travel seats and swivel cab seats. In the kitchen unit by the sliding door, you can cook on a two-burner gas stove. The stainless-steel sink features a folding tap and its own glass cover. On the end panel of the kitchen unit there are three drawers, with another one at the front. The compressor fridge on the opposite side has a 51-litre capacity.

How many berths does this compact campervan have?

The Dreamer Cap Easy has a total of four berths. Two people can sleep in the rear. However, the fixed transverse bed by the tailgate is not suited for very tall campers, measuring 188 cm in length and 112 cm in width. The bed in the pop-top roof is slightly larger: 192 x 128 cm.

Extendable bed

The rear transverse bed consists of two mattresses. Stacking them on top of each other during travel and partially sliding back the slatted frame creates space to carry larger luggage. The luggage area also has room for a portable toilet, such as a portable dry toilet from Clesana or a Porta Potti.
