Description
The Vango Faros III Low Drive Away Awning is a lightweight and compact poled awning designed for campervan owners who want practical extra space without using valuable storage room. Its 290cm width and 275cm depth create a useful campsite hub for relaxing, storing bikes and muddy footwear, changing or sheltering from less predictable weather.
Vango’s Sentinel Active 75D fabric provides a 3000mm hydrostatic head while keeping the overall weight and pack size manageable. PowerFlex fibreglass poles, the included bracer pole and the TBS II Tension Band System help create a reliable touring structure, while the fully sewn-in groundsheet provides a more enclosed, draught-resistant living area.
The Faros III Low is designed for vehicles with a measured connection height of 180–210cm. It can attach using its pre-fitted 6mm kador, supplied over-vehicle straps, roof-bar attachment tabs or a compatible pole-and-clamp system. The roll-away tunnel allows you to detach the vehicle and leave the awning freestanding while you explore for the day.
Suitable vehicle examples include many Volkswagen Transporter, Ford Transit Custom, Renault Trafic, Vauxhall Vivaro, Citroën Dispatch, Peugeot Expert and Toyota Proace campervan conversions. Vehicle designs and conversions vary, so always measure your connection height before ordering. See our Drive Away Awning Guide for help checking fit and choosing a connection method.
