What Is the Tiny Planet Orbita?

The Tiny Planet Orbita is a fully autonomous camper van built on a Mercedes Sprinter 170 WB chassis with diesel power and all-wheel drive. It was proven on a real-world circumnavigation: a family of three lived inside it for six months, covering more than 25,000 miles across three continents.

The Orbita is designed for travelers who want a self-contained, four-season home on wheels without sacrificing comfort. Its 1,350 Ah lithium battery bank, 800W solar array, and hydronic heating system support extended off-grid stays in demanding conditions.

This camper van suits couples, small families, and full-time travelers who prioritize both capability and refined interior design. The Japandi-inspired interior uses bamboo, concrete, and natural materials alongside a smart home system controlled by a built-in tablet or Alexa voice commands.
