Honda's Base Station: a lightweight, modular camper for compact tow cars

Honda reveals the Base Station, a prototype modular, lightweight camper trailer designed to be towed by compact crossovers and EVs (like the CR-V or Prologue). It features a pop-up seven-foot space, a queen bed with an optional bunk bed, external shower and kitchen, air conditioning, lithium battery, inverter, solar panels, and outlets for off-grid or campsite power. Pricing and production timelines remain undecided, though Honda says it would be competitively priced in the towable segment and could potentially be under $20,000 for a base model; production would depend on market reception and will be clarified in future announcements.
