Creative Solutions for Maximizing Space in Your Expedition Vehicle

Sharing our favorite products and designs for making the most out of your space.

When embarking on an overland journey, having a well-designed expedition vehicle can make all the difference. Space optimization is key, but it doesn't have to mean sacrificing functionality or individuality. Here are some innovative solutions to consider when designing your expedition vehicle:


Storage Racks

Racks or holders for equipment like bikes or skis not only open up space but also highlight items that are important to you. At ACME Overland, we believe in building vehicles tailored to your lifestyle. If that means incorporating a wine rack in the kitchen or a fishing rod holder, we're up for the challenge.

 
 

Descending Drawers

Descending drawers are a versatile storage solution that can be strategically placed throughout your vehicle. Whether it's in the bathroom, kitchen, or tight spaces, these drawers can be scaled to fit your specific needs. Unlike traditional drawers, descending drawers simplify storage, allowing you to organize different items efficiently.

 
 

Customized Appliances

When it comes to appliances, it's essential to prioritize what's important to you. For example, if you need a refrigerator but space is limited, consider alternatives like a mini fridge that fits seamlessly into your vehicle's layout. Thinking outside the box allows you to include necessities without compromising on other features.

 
 

Innovative Bag Holders

Finding innovative solutions for organizing belongings can help maintain a tidy space. Consider incorporating racks or hooks designed specifically for bags. These not only keep your vehicle organized but also add to its visual appeal. We particularly loves a modular bag holder system, designed to keep your belongings secure and accessible during your travels.
