A sleek-looking RV was something that was being focused on by the people of Toyota when they created the Toyota RV-2 prototype. I mean, how can you not love how the rear opens? It’s like a Venus Flytrap.
And although the coolness factor kind of dissipates a bit when the tent comes out, it still looks a lot more innovative than other RVs that were produced.
Dubbed the “Idea” car, the Toyota RV-2 was unveiled at the New York Auto Show and the 1972 Tokyo Motor Show. The unique concept was designed using a Corona Mark II chassis and drive train. The RV measures at 186 inches and is able to carry four passengers. Its innovative clamshell canopy (the Venus Flytrap, folks) is able to provide enough space for you to wine, dine, and sleep inside. The beds, tables, and chairs included in the vehicle can be stored neatly once they’re not in use.
