A Compact Touring Companion for Your Campervan
The Vango Faros 3 Air Low Driveaway Awning is the ultimate space-expanding solution for owners of popular low-profile campervans. Engineered for the touring lifestyle, it perfectly balances a compact, portable pack size with a practical and durable living area. Whether you need a dry storage space for gear, a comfortable seating area to relax, or a bug-free dining space, this awning extends your vehicle's comfort without complicating your adventure.
For the 2026 model, Vango has introduced refinements, including upgraded inflation valves for a smoother, quicker setup and enhanced frame stability, building on a decade of proven AirBeam® innovation.
Engineered for Simple, Reliable Performance
This awning is built with practical technology designed for real-world camping conditions.
- Stress-Free Setup with AirBeam®: Replace complicated pole assemblies with Vango's leading AirBeam technology. One person can pitch this awning in just minutes using the included ergonomic pump, which features a handy pressure gauge.
- Confidence in Changeable Weather: The Sentinel Active 150D polyester fabric provides robust durability and a high 4000mm hydrostatic head rating for reliable waterproofing. ColourLok™ Eco technology helps the fabric resist UV fading, preserving its appearance trip after trip. In windy conditions, the patented TBS®II (Tension Band System) braces the structure at three key points to minimise sideways movement and maintain stability.
- Thoughtful, Practical Living Space: Diamond Clear PVC windows flood the interior with natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Toggled privacy curtains allow you to adjust light and privacy instantly. For convenience, a flat-access door provides easy entry for all, including those with reduced mobility or families with prams.
Designed for the Drive-Away Touring Lifestyle
The core purpose of the Vango Faros Driveaway Awning is to offer flexible, additional space without anchoring you to your pitch.
- True Drive-Away Freedom: Using an optional drive-away kit (sold separately), you can securely detach the vehicle tunnel. Simply roll it back and toggle it closed, leaving a fully freestanding awning at your campsite while you explore in your vehicle.
- Universal Vehicle Compatibility: Vango ensures compatibility with a wide range of campervans. The awning comes with a pre-attached 6mm Kador strip for standard rails, 8-metre over-vehicle straps, roof bar tabs, and a sleeve for a traditional pole and clamp kit.
- Optimised Ventilation & Storage: A mesh front door and strategic ventilation panels promote a comfortable airflow to reduce condensation. Inside, the SkyTrack® II flexible hanging system and multiple lantern points let you easily customise your setup with lighting and storage accessories.
Perfect For & Considerations
The Faros 3 Air Low is ideally suited for:
- Touring campervan owners who move between locations frequently.
- Couples or small families needing extra space on spring-to-autumn trips.
- Those who prioritise easy pitching, lightweight packing, and drive-away flexibility.
Please note: As a dedicated touring awning, it is designed for holiday use and is not intended for long-term static or seasonal pitching, as prolonged UV exposure can accelerate fabric wear.
