🔴 More about this video
The Roadtrek SS Agile is one of only a few class B camper vans here in North America built on the 144 inch short wheelbase Mercedes Sprinter. It’s 19.5 feet in length and features a clean exterior free of any swoopy graphics and minimal venting and access panels. Designed for a single person or a couple, this coach features 4 3-pt seat belts, a rear lounge that converts to a bed by electrically lowering the sofa and a galley with a large counter and lots of prep space along the driver’s side. The galley features a sink, 2 burner gas store, 3.1 cu. foot compressor refrigerator and a convection microwave. An induction cook top is optional. Across the hall is a smallish 2-piece wet bath (there is no sink in the bathroom). A pull out counter extension in the galley performs as a makeshift table for when the two cab seats swivel around.

The 2500 Sprinter chassis is a 3.0L V6 turbo diesel engine that packs 188hp and 325 ft. lbs of torque in a 5 speed transmission. The SS Agile comes with the upgraded Mercedes Benz safety features like lane keep assist and collision and blind spot detection as standard.

Roadtrek offer a bevy of options for the SS Agile including the aforementioned induction cooktop, a Alde diesel heating system that eliminates any need for propane when paired with the induction cooktop. You can upgrade to up to 800ah of lithium batteries; Voltstart (Roadtrek’s remote start system); an underhood generator and up to 300w of solar for a very capable electrical system. A 4×4 option is also available.

Like all Roadtreks the SS Agile comes with an industry leading 6 year, unlimited mile warranty that’s also transferable and 2 years of roadside assistance. The MSRP for the SS Agile starts at $129k but as of the time of this video’s release a nearly fully loaded model (sans 4×4) was listed at La Mesa RV in Sacramento for $126k and included 400ah of lithium, VoltStart, an underhood generator, induction cooktop and the Alde diesel heating system.

  • I need a front wheel drive one. I plan on going to the mountains, a lot.

  • Weve been considering an Agile for the past few months. I saw that there was a slight pay jump in the MSRP in 2021. Is it worth it, or is it essentially the same rig as say the 2019? Thanks!

  • I like the SS Agile alot. I love the length, size and anonymity. I dont need any flashy attention. I just want to camp not party. I prefer propane for heating, cooking and the refrigerator. This one is my favorite, so far.

  • Thank you for your video. I was wondering which Van size *B or B+ would you recommend? Height is important *hubby is 6’3.

  • Have the propane version, had so many problems due to quality issues. But because it was expensive with warranty void now due to receivership few years back, dishing out thousands to replace the horrific Ecotrek system with conventional lithium set up. Then of course numerous issues with DEF system from the Mercedes chassis. If I had the choice now, I would avoid Roadtrek, Mercedes diesel chassis and go with something like Pleasure Way with Promaster or Transit chassis.

  • I am looking for a small camper van that can fit in a garage, for a single short person.

  • Ridiculously expensive! I could find something very nice for less than half the price.

  • Features aside, I can’t get passed how ugly it is. I would never have any pride of ownership. It’s hideous.

  • We are tall – are there any small vans that puts priority on beds over wardrobes/kitchens/baths?

  • A whole lot of shaking going on 🎶 you can’t drive it w/o things moving around and your feet didn’t have much room in the bed. Hopefully they fixed that issue on the newer models

  • How many does it Sleep?

  • Is there a spare tire? If you get the 4×4 option is the ground clearance the same? What is the ground clearance?

  • Great review. I'm also considering Winnebago BOLDT 4×4 with ALL LITHIUM power for around $150K. Will try to find your review of it. If you haven't yet made a review of the BOLDT please do so.

  • Aren't we just a 'cutie widdle Nancy Boi!'
    That could be tolerated, if only you actually had a fuckin' clue about anything more than getting 'Fisted' and 'Water Sports'

  • How about a Mini-camper review. ReconCampers(California)has a pop top nv200 nissan minivan and DLM Distribution(Minnesota)has the Ford transit connect minivan conversions. Both under $50,000.

  • Hello Neil, do you have any info./updates about the warranty after their bankruptcy / changed owner to a France company. Will they honor their RV’s warranties as usual for those sold prior bankruptcy. Or basically all warranties down to drain??

  • The only "negative " is that there doesn't seem to be splatter guards for the galley to protect the interior wall and possibly more importantly the rear of the driver's seat. Other than that would be a great short trip travel van

  • i want one. is there someone oui there that wants to buy me one?? lol i would be ever so grateful.

  • Don't mean to be negative, but this Roadtrek conversion is junk! Cheap electrical switches, cheap plastic catches on all the Cabinetry, the black water Disposal system this way over engineered, complicated, and slow, wobbly tables, it spends more time at the dealer getting things fixed than it does on the road! Don't waste your money! Although it's a great looking rig!

  • Do you have a European doppelganger that I could subscribe to to learn about the European campervans?

  • Who is the dealer selling this unit? Price appears reasonable compared to others. OOH

  • An "amazing price" of $125K is amazingly high to me. Why do European makers offer great class-B RVs that are 30% less but you can't buy them in the USA?

  • No way road trek will give you $23000 discount

  • Breaks my heart what happened to Roadtrek, this was such a smart design!

  • $3590 for 300 watts of solar? A 300 watt panel is barely $300 dollars. I understand that there's a bit of a markup for labor, but $3200 just to mount and wire a panel?

  • Do you still recommend buying an SS Agile like this now that Roadtrek has gone out of business? My concern is that the electrical system is proprietary. I love watching your channel! Thanks, Judy

  • Very reasonable recommendation. If you like mobility, this is a cool cosch

  • I wonder how tall he is? I did not catch it the first 10 times he told me.

  • Why can’t someone make an affordable campervan like was made in the 60/70s early 80s??????? We can’t all buy Mansions on wheels that cost more than our homes!!!!! Come on!!!!!

  • Hello,

    two questions:

    1. Any update on Roadtrek returning for business?

    2. have you done a review on Adventurous RS? could not find it..

    thanks

  • Hello Neil. Thanks for your great videos. I need your opinion. I'm probably going to buy a 2020 Mercedes 144 in. WB 4×4 camper van. I will be a solo fulltime traveler. A heavy-duty advanced electrical system is probably the most important element I'm looking for….a 2nd alternator over a gas/propane generator. I'm sold on Pleasureways quality but I'm not a big fan of a propane fridge and no 4×4. The Revel doesn't offer lithium. I think the Airstream has a weak electrical system. I guess we're down to a Midwest/American Coach…what do you think? Thank you!

  • What does insurance on this go for?
