joe is checking out the hymer makingsure it has enough carrying capacity. we saw the hymer originally back in florida. going back through its actually smaller thana lot of the class b's we've been finding but this one is actually fairly comfortable. it feels the most livable out of any of them. hi, my name is mike snell, vice president of salesfor the erwin hymer group of north america. today we're going to be doing awalkthrough of a 2017 hymer aktiv. this aktiv is built on the dodge promaster chassis. it's a six-cylinder gas chassis, its front-wheel drive.
we just drove it up here, it drives very nice. it's got a great turning radius and plenty of power. we're gonna walk inside here. one thing about the aktiv is we have power steps both for the passenger, driver and into the entry of the rv. so as we enter, you'll notice that both the driver's seat and the co-pilot seat can turn around to make this kind of a small living quarters. we've got a double seat here that can have two adults, it's got seat belts. makes a very nice area up front for conversation as well as when you're driving with passengers, they're able to use the dash air
to comfort them as you're driving down the road and it's close, to be able to be close especially if you have children. our tv here is located so can be viewed not only from the front seat but it can also be viewed from outside and can turn all the way around like this and be viewed in the back bedroom area. we have special windows, they're dual pane windows. they've got a blackout shade as well as a screen and these can actually be opened up. we have 110 outlets and usb ports in five different locations in the aktiv. up top here is one of the vents. in europe they don't have air-conditioning.
they use these vents, they're very simple. they lift up for ventilation. this unit does have air-conditioning in the back. we actually have space for storage in the floor. as you walk in the coach, you'll notice it's very european design. very light cabinets, dark floors, light interiors, a very modern look. we've got screen door here. it's a beautiful galley, notice our drawer glides they come out they're
very strong and sturdy and they're self closing. gotta sink, stove, again 110 outlet, usb port. it's got a nice size pantry over here. we gotta roll up pantry down here. in bathroom it's a wet bath. it's very unique inside its got a swivel toilet you can swivel when you're taking a shower for more floor space. it's also got a retractable sink that can be put up against the side of the wall when you're doing a shower. it's got a shower curtain that covers the vanity mirror. it's got an exhaust fan up in the top.
this is the back of the aktiv. we've got a bed back here. we have this folded up so you canput bicycles, kayaks, any other kind of equipment you'd like to do while you're driving down the road. it's great great storage space. it's got drawers again, self-closing file drawers. lots of interior access. again as i mentioned the airconditioning is back here in the back. you got dual windows, 110 outlet, usb ports in the back.
the beds very simple to use, pops down, take these mattresses... ...and boom you're ready for bed! the tv can be turned around, viewed in the bedroom. and then when it's time for bed, the curtain shuts. cable outlet, electrical outlet, this is your truma venting. this is your water outlet and then this is the cassette toilet. so the benefits of the cassette toilet are very simple.
it can be taken any restroom or outhouse. it can be easily emptied andthen brought back to the unit. well that was a quick walk around of the aktiv. we're the only manufacturer in the industry that offers a six year factory warranty. it's not a third-party warranty it's actuallya warranty that's through the company. it's actually transferable as well. so as an owner, if you were to sell your coach after four years, you're able to offer a two-year warranty to the next consumer. that's really important comes to resell value of this unit and when you're ready to trade in for another hymer. the chassis warranty on this coach is a five year, 100,000 mile warranty.
also in this coach is the battery technology. we're the only manufacturer has lithium batteries that are capable of running all the units in the coach including your air conditioning. taking the hymer aktiv outfor a test-drive, really excited. we've been looking at campervans for downsizing and this one so far has been our favorite uh, joe drove us up here. i'm gonna go for a spin in the parking lot. is there a backup camera? yeah ok, i don't think i actually need it.
woaaaaa, look at that view! should we just take it? [laughing] just take it to disneyland.there you go. it does drive very different. it does, i mean it drives like a van. yeah, well i've never driven a van. ready for a u-turn?uh-huh. ohh the turning radius on this thing's great!
i'm just gonna do a donut. just keep going around in circles i love it! punch it!!! awesome! [phone buzzing] i like it. [phone buzzing] oh i'm getting birthday calls, got to get this. it is kait's birthday today.
it is my birthday!!! i'll buy you a hymer for your birthday. promise? uh-huh hey, i'm jim hammil, i'm the president ceoof the erwin hymer group of north america. we have both the hymer brands and the roadtrek brands. a couple of years ago under roadtrek,we started the project to... to design a better power module using batterycells that were lithium ion phosphate batteries. we used modules that were being used by boeing, the aircraft industry and we knew they were safe. so we took the cells that they use and built them into a new rv power module
that has a specifically designed rvheating and cooling system. a specifically designed rv bms, battery management system. and then some proprietary stuff that we do which helps make it all work together with solar with our engine generator technology and with plugging in from the wall on shore power. all those technologies work together at oncein a vehicle as well as the chassis alternator. the hymer aktiv gets the 400 amp hour block. and of course the hymer aktiv is coming outin a new model called the 2.0 aktiv, aktiv 2.0 which will be slightly longer which willallow the 800 amp hours to be installed.
you know the primary parts of the ecotrektechnology are broken into four major areas. power module, inverter system / inverter charger, solar which is the mppt controller, and the panels on the roof. that's a small version of the panels. we offer panels anywhere from 200watts all the way through to 600 watts. which easily replaces the power use everyday unless you're using large amounts of air conditioning. and then the engine generator technology which we developed.
which is our own proprietary technology, it's not the same as any normal second alternator you can put on and it works to recharge your batteries much faster. 280 amp alternator that when you're driving ensures your lithium system is completely charged back up. when you're parked and you want to sleep overnight, you turn your air conditioning on with thebatteries, you flick on the volt start system. and you're sleeping away peacefully. or you're out hiking in your dog is in the air conditioning. and it senses that it is down below 12.1 volts and then the sensor kicks on the engine.
starts the engine of your vehicle whichis very quiet, its pollution controlled not banned by the campgrounds, notbanned by national forest to run at night. and then it starts on its own. when it reaches 13.8 bolts, fully charged, it shuts itself back off again. and it will do that up to five timesduring the night if you need it. or when your dog is resting in the air conditioningwhile you're out doing something. one of the major factors that, you know, that is important to people, is that the fact that the ac of thevehicle runs off a battery system and it's the ecotrek system thatgives us the ability to do that easily
so ecotrek is changing the marketplace. it is letting people get off the grid, it truly allows them to not be plugged in. it allows you to go wherever you want.
