The point of Niesie is independence: nothing on board needs gas, and nothing needs a powered site. Cook a real dinner, run the fridge for a week, and charge every device — parked at a beach most travellers can only visit in daylight.

The case for it

Four people, off the grid, off the gas.

Most 4-berth vans still rely on gas and a powered site every couple of nights. Niesie was built so you never think about either.

The electric rooftop tent is the trick that makes four people easy: press a button and the second bed is up, with its own fans and power. Inside, a real queen bed and a roof fan keep two more comfortable. No tent poles, no nightly choreography.

Underneath it all is a 300Ah lithium system that just doesn't run out — induction cooking, a 110L fridge for a week of food, and charging for every device. Park where you like, stay as long as you like, cook a proper meal, and never chase a caravan park again.

Proof

Real trips. Real reviews.

Verified reviews from this van's Camplify profile — south-coast loops, four travellers, long distances.

  • This van is so well organised and very well thought out!! We did the Perth to Esperance loop for 12 days and it was perfect. I highly recommend this van for this trip — we were 4 and slept very well. Go for it!

  • We had the best time! We took it from Perth down to Bremer Bay over a week with my partner's parents. It was spacious, had absolutely everything we could possibly want and was incredibly smooth to drive over the long distances. Handover and communication were fantastic — I recommend it.

    Kristen · · verified Camplify hire
  • Very well set up and presented. Lots of information at handover and happy to be contacted if needed. The van was very comfortable for us — 3 adults. Good to drive and great not to be reliant on powered sites or gas for cooking.

Best for

The trips this van is made for.

Four people, sealed roads, longer trips, and a strong preference for never plugging in.

  • FAMILY OF FOUR

    Two adults + two kids, south-west loop

    Queen inside for the parents, rooftop tent for the kids. The 110L fridge handles a week of food without a single resupply panic.

  • SOUTH-COAST LOOP

    Perth → Esperance & back, 10–14 days

    Exactly the trip past renters did. Long sealed distances, remote nights, zero powered sites — what the 300Ah system is built for.

  • SURF & ADVENTURE

    Boards, gear, and remote breaks

    Full-sized boards live under the bed. Park at the break, rinse off in the 60L shower, cook dinner on induction with the sunset.

  • NOT FOR

    Off-road, soft sand, gravel tracks

    This is a 2WD campervan. Sealed roads and short, well-graded gravel only. For genuine off-road, look at a 4WD camper.

FAQ

The questions families ask first.

Anything else, ring the Offgrid line on 0422 428 584.

Q.01 How does Niesie sleep four adults?

A spacious queen bed (203cm long) with a premium mattress sleeps two inside, with a 280mm roof fan directly above for warm nights. For the other two, a brand-new electric rooftop tent deploys at the touch of a button — a 100mm-thick double mattress, 360° views, ventilation fans and power outlets. No poles, no wrestling.

Q.02 Is it really 100% electric — no gas?

Yes. Zero gas bottles. A 300Ah lithium bank and 1500W pure-sine inverter run the induction stovetop, electric kettle, microwave and toastie maker. Two fixed roof solar panels plus a DC-DC charger keep the battery topped up while parked and while you drive.

Q.03 How long can it stay off-grid?

The 300Ah system supports roughly 3+ hours of continuous electric cooking, or several days of normal use — lights, the 110L fridge/freezer, and device charging — without ever booking a powered campsite. Sun and driving extend that further.

Q.04 Is there room for surfboards and gear?

Plenty. The layout takes full-sized surfboards under the bed, with organised storage throughout. There's also an interior coffee table/workstation in front of the rear seats for morning coffee, meal planning or catching up on work.

Q.05 What does the daily rate include?

From $140/day with a 4-day minimum. The WA National Parks Pass is on the vehicle, comprehensive insurance and bond run per Camplify standards, and 200 km/day is included (averaged across the hire). Four camping chairs, the pull-out kitchen and a 60L pressurised exterior shower are all on board. No exterior cleaning needed at return.

Q.06 Where do I pick it up, and can I do a one-way?

Pickup and return are near Perth Airport, with flexible times. No one-way hires. Johan does the handover and briefing in person and is contactable throughout your trip.

Estimate only. Fleet averages: diesel ≈ 12.5 L/100km, petrol ≈ 14 L/100km — edit the L/100km if your route is heavy on gravel, hills or headwinds. Fuel is paid by you and is on top of the hire price and Camplify insurance.
