Van Life

Yama Vans, a Canadian Sprinter upfitter, builds its adventure vans on a modular platform it calls the Gear Bus — “all of the thrills, some of the frills.” Peyto is one of those builds: a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144 with all-wheel drive, finished in a deep coastal blue and set up less like a rolling apartment [...]

Tour Fjord, a Yama Vans Logan01N build on a 170″ AWD Sprinter: radiant in-floor heat, an indoor/outdoor bench workspace, and 2+ weeks off-grid for semi-retired ski life in Fernie, BC.

The Fitz by Yama Vans is a Teton01N Mercedes Sprinter 144 with a custom Grasmere Lake-green exterior, built for a UK-born couple into cycling, wild swims, and ski touring. It seats four, adds a pop-top, and has an induction galley, a gear garage, and solar.

The Taiyō by Yama Vans is a Robson01N Mercedes Sprinter 144 built for two physicians who bike, ski, and paddle, with a warm orange-and-teal interior, a lengthwise bed, a bike-loaded gear garage, an expanding galley counter, and off-grid, off-road capability.

The Furō by Yama Vans is a Robson01N Mercedes Sprinter 144 camper built for an athlete who trains, races, and works remotely on the road, with a lengthwise bed, a fat-bike rear rack, filtered water, and a calming coastal interior.

The Trekka by Yama Vans is a Mercedes Sprinter 144 camper built for a couple who split their seasons between bikes and skis and work from the road, with a lengthwise bed, a bike-and-ski gear garage, and a swivel table that doubles as a mobile office.
