1. Supertruck
超級房車

The KiraVan is a six wheeled all-terrain ‘supertruck’ capable of housing a family of three for a fortnight, travelling 2,000 miles without refuelling and tackling slopes of up to 45 degrees.
這輛房車名叫KiraVan，它是一輛6輪“超級越野卡車”，一次加油量可供一家三口生活兩週，行駛2000英里（約3200公里），還能駕馭45度的斜坡。

2. Multifunctional Vehicle

3. Kitchen
廚房

Fully stocked, the kitchen could provide for a family of three for two to three weeks; if some onboard gear were to be replaced with extra food, they could last as long as six weeks. Packed with a convection oven, microwave oven, induction and infrared cooktops, a fridge, and a freezer, the kitchen has all the basic necessities for a five-star meal.
廚房食物儲存豐富，可供三口之家或兩口之家吃上三個星期；如果路途中可以增補食物，廚房足可以讓一家人兩個月不餓肚子。廚房中有風烤箱、微波爐、感應和紅外爐竈面、冰箱、冷凍箱等設備，五星級飯店的烹飪設備一應俱全。

4. Dining Room

The KiraVan houses an ecofriendly bathroom, an upscale kitchen, and a luxe dining area. The only thing missing is a built-in coffee machine. A countertop one will have to do.

The super vehicle could also someday help researchers, photographers, and anyone else who needs to travel to the most unreachable places on earth for long stretches of time.
這輛超級房車適用性也極其廣泛，探險家、攝影師、以及任何工作需要長時間深入地球上最難到達地區的人，都可以很好地利用它。
