A Concept Born on the Road

Founded by Charlie and Grace after their own journey from the UK to the Arctic Circle and down to the Adriatic coast, Project Yonder was never just a business idea - it was lived experience. From chasing the midnight sun at the northernmost tip of Norway to winding through mountain passes and coastal tracks, their adventures shaped the philosophy behind every build. Based in the seaside town, Hastings, Project Yonder create Bespoke AWD expedition vans with adventure-ready interiors, designed for real-world travel.

Their Philosophy: Freedom Without Limits

Project Yonder is a clear belief: Freedom is not a feature - it’s the foundation. Each van combines: All-wheel-drive capability Award-winning off-grid systems Thoughtfully considered layouts Premium, durable materials Systems are not an afterthought - they are seamlessly integrated from the ground up, allowing you to stay off-grid longer, travel further, and roam in total comfort. Every detail is purposeful. How weight is distributed. How power systems support real independence. How storage works for life on the move. Whether crossing continents or escaping for the weekend, the goal remains the same: Create vehicles that remove limits - not add them.

Values That Drive Every Build

Adventure-Led Design Every vehicle is shaped by lived experience on demanding long-distance travel. Systems First Thinking Electrical, water, and heating systems are engineered for true off-grid autonomy. Uncompromising Capability AWD platforms and robust components ensure confidence on the roads. Comfort Without Compromise Freedom doesn’t mean roughing it - each space is refined, warm, and thoughtfully designed. Built to Endure Durable materials, precision installation, and meticulous attention to detail ensure longevity. Personal Collaboration Every project begins with understanding how clients travel, explore, and live.
