It is a problem that has undoubtedly tormented us all: arrives, which means that there has never been a better to immerse yourself in a lot of icy water to make a little contrast … but that lake, ocean or pond is not even close to an overheated and wood -coated room in which then get hot. Luckily, Ford has a solution ready to reach a nearby lake: a mobile sauna built from an electric van.

Yeah, This Ford e-Transit is a unique piece, built by the Ford Pro special vehicle equipment to solve a very specific problem. Considered a tool for those who seek to maximize the revitalizing benefits of hot and cold water, The “E-Sauna” is a unique piece designed to transport from and to “swimming in open waters” areas “ where explorers might want to warm up after jumping into the frozen abyss.

A sauna fed with the same energy that moves the van

Inside, The van is equipped with wood and insulation panels designed to replicate the feeling of an saunayou know, of those that are not integrated into the electricity vans. Since the e-transit includes the same Power Pro onboard system that is found both in internal combustion F-150s, The sauna works with the same power supply as the electric van itself. This means that, in theory, the owner of an e-sauna could load the van the night, take it to his favorite coast to take a dip, relax in the sauna for a few hours and lead home without having to worry about anything more than the main load of the van.

It may seem an exaggerated solution for a very specific problem, but well, it fulfills its function. After all, that is the function of commercial vehicles. If a van can be a mobile base for pet care or pest control, why not a mobile steam room of wooden panels?
