Minimalist Car Camping: Quick Weekend Escapes in Your Tesla

How Minimalism and Car Camping Go Hand-in-Hand

In a world of endless stuff, car camping offers city dwellers an easy escape. Embrace the “less stuff, more freedom” philosophy: simply place your Teraglide trunk platform in your car, add your essentials, and head into nature—no bulky campervans, no complicated setups.

Minimalist camping focuses on essentials only: a comfortable sleeping surface, a few versatile tools, and the freedom to explore. With our Teraglide Platform, you eliminate setup stress—just slide it into your boot and unwind.
