Mario told R.Rides: “Our philosophy by building our vehicles is the freedom to make the impossible possible.” This special vehicle allows you to enjoy the privacy that travelling in a mobile home provides but can also be used for bigger social events. Mario explained the mechanics behind the vehicle. “The original design comes from Luigi Colani, who is a world famous automotive industrial designer. His original idea was to use biologic forms out of nature.” Every part of this RV has been thought through to make it a comfortable ride on the road. Mario said that in the latest version they had to redesign the front grill: “we needed a lot of air intake for the engine. We also decided to choose an automatic sliding door as an entrance.” This ultimate ride doesn't come cheap, available in a whole host of custom options, ‘The Element’ will set you back over $3 million, making it the world's most expensive mobile home.

00:00Our philosophy by building our vehicles is the freedom to make the impossible possible.
00:12If you want to hit the open road but can't forgo luxury, this could be the vehicle for you.
00:25This is made for enthusiasts, which are more for the extraordinary taste.
00:33With this eye-catching design, you have a very, very special vehicle, which you can use either
00:38for private purposes as an RV, as a mobile home, but also as a VIP coach, even for hospitality
00:45and event activities.
00:49The original design comes from Luigi Colani, who is a world famous automotive industrial
00:55designer.
00:56His original idea was to use biologic forms out of nature.
01:03We are actually very proud of our aerodynamic design because this allows us to have the
01:09best track co-efficiency currently available for a street-legal truck.
01:17And we save at least 20% fuel compared to the standard OEMs.
01:22One of our main focuses was to combine different characters out of the aviation, of the boating,
01:31and finally from the motorsport.
01:35This is how it all begins.
01:36We are standing in front of a stock chassis for an Element Palazzo Superior.
01:43The heart of this 28-ton king of the road is a 600-horsepower Volvo six-cylinder inline engine.
01:50This chassis is already extended to the desired total length of 45 feet.
01:57We adapted already our additional air suspension for the main body.
02:03So step-by-step it becomes a luxury Element vehicle.
02:08At the latest version we had to redesign the front grille because we needed a lot of air intake
02:15for the engine.
02:16Also, we decided to choose an automatic sliding door as an entrance.
02:22And once in the cab, the top spec continues.
02:28To build a very high specific level of quality, you need a very carefully selected choice of
02:36materials and components.
02:40We offer two different models.
02:43The Element, which has a fully integrated cabin with the body connected, directly connected,
02:50which is then mainly used as a mobile home.
02:53We also offer the same futuristic cab to haul semi-trailers, usually used for transportation
03:01of any kind of goods.
03:04It takes eight months to build our Element vehicle.
03:08And this ultimate RV doesn't come cheap.
03:13Available in a whole host of custom options, the Element will set you back a cool $3 million,
03:20making this the world's most expensive mobile home.
03:27The view out of the cockpit is incomparable to any other vehicle.
03:32You drive it, it is outstanding.
03:34You're like the captain on the road.
03:36You feel like flying.
03:38It's just fun.
03:40It's definitely outstanding and unique.
