‘Opera’ luxury camper trailer hits a high note

The Opera luxury camper trailer seems big but the description indicates it is 7 meters long, more than 3 meters wide and 3.5 meters high. It might be a little on the heavy side though. There isn't a weight given but the features might make it a little heavy. It seems bigger than really is.




It would be neat if it a Smart Fortwo could tow it.

I guess it is longer than I expected.
length; 7 meters = 22.9658 feet
width; 3 meters = 9.82451 feet
height; 3.5 meters = 11.4829 feet
I guess this would be when it is opened. I doubt they would it would be that size when it is closed. At least the photo when it is closed seems alot smaller. It is hard to believe all that came out of that 'small' box. I will look for information on the size of it when it is not opened.

With four wheels, it might be on the heavy side but it is still cool looking.
TreeHugger.

There is mention in the article that they are hoping for a 'green version'. I think a lighter 'green version' would be good.

I requested information from them. I asked if the Opera could be towed by a Smart Fortwo. I asked if there could be a lighter version of the Opera.
