Helio

Helio will have its new Helio 2024 O Series and HE3 Series, along with a new addition to the O Series family: The Helio O4 EVO for a family of four.

The company said the Helio O4 EVO is the logical evolution of the Helio O4. As children grow up, HELIO offers an ideal solution for the family with its two bunk beds and queen bed at the back. In addition, it is equipped with a large table for four, an electric cooler, a microwave, a portable toilet, USB/12V inlets, and a lot of storage including the full-size cabinet with shelves, storage under the benches and a large drawer under the front counter.

Several options are available including the all-new retractable outdoor kitchen with butane stove and sink, propane heating and tent awning.

The offroad edition, which will be displayed on-site, will feature 14-inch wheels.

With a weight of just 1,371 pounds, the Helio O4 EVO can be towed by most small SUVs and cars. Finally, it’s a mini trailer that allows the whole family to travel together in comfort to explore new destinations and create unforgettable memories.
