Strong Sales of Car Camping Accessories Like Car Camping Mats Amid Car Camping Boom
Enhance Car Camping Satisfaction with Easy-to-Install QM6 Exclusive Accessories

[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Since the outbreak of COVID-19 made overseas travel difficult, travelers' interest in domestic leisure activities that can be enjoyed privately with family and acquaintances, such as hiking, golf, and camping, has increased. Among these, the field that caused the biggest boom was undoubtedly ‘camping’.


According to Emart, sales of camping supplies such as camping tents and tables increased by 25.9% last year compared to the previous year, and also rose by 53.6% in January and February this year. Among various types of camping, from backpacking to glamping and auto camping, ‘chabak (car + lodging)’ has emerged as the trend most suitable for social distancing.


The biggest advantage of chabak is that it is more independent and isolated than camping and is less restricted by location. Also, it is popular because it can be easily enjoyed inside the car without the core camping equipment, the tent. Various chabak products such as chabak mats, which allow sleeping by flattening the widened trunk space after folding the second row, and chabak curtains are also selling well.

‘QM6’ Exclusive Chabak Accessories Stimulating Camping Desire

In response to this demand, automobile manufacturers are also releasing various camping accessories for their customers. The model that draws attention is Renault Samsung Motors’ representative sport utility vehicle (SUV), the ‘QM6’. It is a mid-size SUV that provides ample space for chabak, and various related products are manufactured and sold exclusively for this model by the manufacturer.


Renault Samsung Motors is also a leader in the chabak accessory market, having introduced the ‘QM6’ exclusive air mattress and car tent for the first time among domestic finished car manufacturers. The air mattress, which creates a comfortable sleeping space by folding down the second-row seats to connect to the trunk space, allows men and women of all ages over 185cm tall to lie down comfortably, making it an essential item for chabak.

The QM6 exclusive car tent, which blocks sunlight and rain, is designed to maximize the limited trunk space to realize an optimal space configuration. Utilizing the advantage of the SUV, which can secure a wide space from the trunk to the second row by folding the second-row seats, it is a connection-type tent installed outside the rear trunk of the vehicle, allowing users to enjoy chabak camping.



In addition, Renault Samsung Motors has added five more chabak products to enjoy chabak camping more compactly, including a simple chair, simple table, wide blanket, camping hanger, and wood-print tumbler, following the existing air mattress and car tent. With customized chabak accessories, easy installation and convenient mobility make any place a campsite.
