Alu-Cab is a proudly South African company; designing, manufacturing and shipping innovative automotive parts to the world.
When we had a chance to shoot their flagship demo model, we jumped at the chance, mostly because Ciro has never been a roof-tent and he was particularly excited about this.
But what a build this is. A shower, a 270 degree awning, solar panel, roof tent, icemaker and even a fireplace! Yes, an indoor fireplace.
The Hilux itself has been beefed up to handle the extra weight, with an uprated braking system from Powerbrake and impressive looking suspension from Old Man Emu, not to mention the lift kit and those massive Maxxis tyres.
Join Ciro as he gives you a tour of this incredible Overlander.
For more information on how you can get your bakkie to this level, get in touch with Alu-Cab here:

Please do more videos of this kind. There's lots of local manufacturers and specialists that do overland conversions. Your videos can do a lot to support local enterprise and encourage people to look towards the outdoor life for adventure!

This is a fantastic setup. Job well done to the guys at Alu-Cab. I was actually watching a video of an overland setup for a Toyota Tacoma when this popped up in my suggestions and it's so refreshing to see this kind of content from a local channel.

I like this a lot. Only thing I’d change is to use a single cab over a double cab bakkie. I think there’s more opportunity for customization that way

@morneduplessis3608 2 жыл бұрын

Look, the setup is really nice and aftermarket accessories have come a long way in making camping setups easier to set up. But depending on price and the trip to be taken, a decent Off-road trailer should be a better solution. Fuel consumption is the same for me towing an Echo with a Hilux 2.4 Auto and its not as unstable on the open road as this. You might even be able to go on rougher terrain with the trailer, than in this. All said, this is a Showcase vehicle so marketing is the goal here, not necessarily functionality. Looks good

@ConnectFork Жыл бұрын

Agreed. I wouldn’t take this setup on any difficult tracks. You be better off leaving the van at a campsite and exploring. If you’re just touring it’s perfect I think. Also a good van plus your truck is much more expensive overall. Towing sucks, and this sets up quicker, too. Only issue I find with the Alucab setup personally is there isn’t much storage space. Long range trips might be an issue.

@lucafak 2 жыл бұрын

Everytime i see a build like this i genuinely ask myself if there is actually someone that uses it, always clean and new. Very cool and all no question about it, but does it make any sense at all? Who uses it? Why not building an actual VAN instead?

The folding shower is not a Alucab design , it was originally designed by an Australian company called Quickpitch in western Australia over 4 years ago and the owner who designed the device is a South African who is also the owner of the company, this concept has been copied by dozens of other manufacturers around the world who have very rarely acknowledged who actually designed the device

Could never get behind the Hilux 100%...always felt like it was a Car-Truck. the Corolla interior just makes my shit soft...and then i saw that moose test fail and my gosh...what a shitshow. If it would fix the interior to be more rugged and they added better engine options in latin america i would go for one.
