The new vehicle design by Christian Susana is a nice combination of car and a caravan camper. Christian has called it Colim (Colors of Life in Motion), which might not win many points on looks department, but still is quite useful given the kind of flexibility it offers. Colim caravan concept provides the advantage of detaching the front part if one does not have a usage for the home part. Design wise it reminds more of geometric shape, which one can say to be a welcome change from the regular designs, but the designer has really explored a possibility using different shapes which may pave way for better shaped cars.
The designer says : “The Colim concept – an acronym meaning ‘colors of life in motion’ – is an intelligent mobility concept which stretches primarily the bridge between caravans, camper, lifestyle and business. Dubbed a ‘lifestyle motor home’, the cockpit can be disconnected from the usable living space. The livable area is flexible, with individually applicable multi function modules. Designed for two people (max. four persons), the motor home offers the possibility to personalize its four mobile ‘walls’ according to the present life situation of the user. This flexibility is not only limited to the living area, but also features in the cockpit.”

That’s pretty cool. It looks a bit “gauky” at first but I like the separate car concept. Beats towing one behind the motor home!
I have to say that the design is indeed impressive, I just love those wide windows, I would definitely not mind owning one. Just let us now if they decide to build it!thank you so much for this very nice post.
Interesting concept vehicle. It would certainly be safer than towing a travel trailer or a 5th wheel and it would also be a lot more convenient than a motorhome.
What a great design. I have just bought a (used) camper van and it looked nothing like this! I can only wish 🙂
I would love to own one of these. Please put into production
what is this for
What an innovative design… Good job (y) 😀
How much does it cost
This is perfect! As someone who is a traveler in soul, i need this! Where can i get one of this? Seriously it's gorgeous!
Mmmmmmmmm looks very nice
Interesting
When is it gonna launch in United Kingdom
This is great creative idea to construct for travelers. I like the fact there is a spot to lay down, and also the fact it detaches easily from it’s unit.. It’s a good start point to expand from.
nice think
to the future

What a great car that is and it is really looks like a vanity van of any Hollywood super star. Just look at it’s features and looks that are extraordinary.

Nice one.
I think the design concept for this caravan is great. However, the design has focused more on the back spaces and little on the front car. I find the front car to be way small. Though this would be great for a detached car that can go for business and work, the engine may be overloaded when the small car is attached to the caravan and has to pull it together with the 4 people and their belongings. That being said, I think the interior space is enough and hope it can accommodate my best mini fridge.
Can't wait to see this one! Bring it on!
Year 09 till now and still no where to be found:(!
I would really love to own one that I could separate the front from the back.
Its such a fantastic idea! I hope this is battery operated too!
I like to hear your success story soon.
Yep typical, designers get something sensible and creative done that puts the greedy power-hungry capitalist companies into a position to squash it. Would buy it right now to, but not approved for the road anywhere in the world.
Thanks for sharing the idea. I definitely appreciate your article regarding colim caravan concep, its very epic creativity now a days eveyone need this type of creativity & design. Cool design & inspiring !
Where or how can I get a pricing for one of these COLIM carvan?
I love this! Please put this in to production. With a detachable truck bed, when the camper is detached a person can attach a truck bed or the like.
