The Stand-Up Choice for Those Seeking a Larger Class B Mini-T Campervan

While the standard Mini-T Campervan by DLM-Distribution is well-known for its compact footprint, car-like drivability, and garageability, there’s a larger, more powerful option available for those who need extra space, capacity, and height: the Mini-T HR. Built on the Ford Transit 350 chassis with dual rear wheels and an all-wheel drive system, the HR model is a bold step up—nearly 10 feet tall, loaded with features, and ready for serious travel.


High Roof, High Capability

The Mini-T HR stands nearly 10 feet tall, making it far larger than its garage-friendly counterpart. This additional height allows for a more open interior feel and greater stand-up room inside. Built on the robust AWD Ford Transit 350 chassis with dual rear wheels, the HR model is engineered for heavy-duty travel, offering impressive stability, power, and all-weather traction.

Equipped with Ford’s 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost engine, the Mini-T HR provides smooth acceleration and towing strength that’s hard to match in a compact campervan. This setup allows for longer-distance touring, cross-country travel, and operation in a wider range of terrain.


Designed for Group Travel and Comfort

Unlike the standard Mini-T Campervan, which is optimized for two travelers, the Mini-T HR offers seating with seatbelts for up to 7 passengers (depending on layout), making it a strong choice for families, work crews, or groups traveling together. While the sleeping configuration still focuses on two people, the added seating capacity makes it more versatile for day use, shuttling, or hosting additional passengers.

Multiple air conditioning units, multiple heaters, power awnings, and integrated Starlink satellite communication systems are just a few of the features that distinguish the HR model as a true long-haul travel solution. Whether you’re camping off-grid or using it as a mobile office or tour vehicle, the Mini-T HR delivers functionality that goes far beyond weekend getaways.


Power, Storage, and Off-Grid Capability

As with all Mini-T Campervans, the HR model features a full power management system, complete with solar charging capabilities, inverter, and robust auxiliary battery storage. These systems are designed to support off-grid camping, power appliances, and even allow you to stay connected via Starlink, whether you're parked at a remote trailhead or on the job site.

The high roof also means significantly expanded overhead storage options and easier mobility inside the van. Despite its size, the layout is optimized for efficiency and comfort, with quality materials and DLM-Distribution’s proven attention to detail throughout.


Mini-T HR vs. Standard Mini-T

While the standard Mini-T Campervan remains the go-to option for those in HOA communities, condos, or seeking a dual-purpose daily driver and camper, the Mini-T HR is designed for those who want more space, more power, and more onboard features—without moving into the Class C or large motorhome category. It’s still a Mini-T at its core, but on a much larger scale.


Final Thoughts

The Mini-T HR Campervan by DLM-Distribution offers a bold alternative for travelers who need more than what a garageable campervan can provide. With seating for up to seven, off-grid capabilities, and all the power of the AWD Ford Transit platform, it’s built to handle real adventures while maintaining the functional, easy-to-use spirit of the Mini-T brand.

Happy Camping!
