The Honda Elysion with Front Elevating Roof Conversion is a luxury MPV that combines comfort, sleek design, and space efficiency — making it one of the most sought-after Japanese imports for campervan conversions in the UK. With its smooth ride, generous interior width, and stylish presence, it’s no surprise the Elysion is a favourite among vanlifers looking to stand out from the crowd.

However, to truly maximise its camper potential, you need to unlock the vertical space. That’s where our Front Elevating Roof Conversion comes in.

Professionally installed by Kinmel Campers, this conversion adds full standing height and optional extra sleeping capacity, transforming your Honda Elysion into a fully functional pop-top camper — without compromising its elegant profile.

Whether you’re touring the Scottish Highlands or enjoying wild weekends in Wales, this upgrade turns your Elysion into a true go-anywhere basecamp.
