The Jade is VLC's extended-length conversion van layout, built for families, full-time vanlifers, and anyone who refuses to put a timeline on their trip. Same clean, accessible systems as the Sherpa, engineered for personalization: pre-wired for A/C, pre-configured for expanded power, water, and storage. Future modifications are designed to be easy and straightforward, but this van is road-ready from day one. [ See available add-ons ]
