Now you can take your Benz camping.

German automaker Daimler on Thursday revealed its first-ever pop-up camper van for the U.S. market in a debut coinciding with the Chicago Auto Show.

The Mercedes-Benz Weekender will be built in North Charleston, South Carolina, in partnership with classic-camper repair and restoration shop Peace Vans and Driverge Vehicle Innovations.

The Mercedes-Benz Weekender is "harkening back to the glory days of camper vans," the company said in a statement. "Mercedes-Benz drew inspiration from illustrious models of the past while integrating the latest sophisticated safety, reliability and convenience features to create a new modern pop-top van."

The company did not announce pricing. Its other vans range in starting price from $27,180 to $35,580, excluding a $1,195 "delivery and destination" charge.

Mercedes said the van is well suited for extended road trips, weekend getaways or outings to the beach. But the luxury brand also said the van can be used as a daily vehicle.

“We have known for a long time that this market need was unmet, as evidenced by the high demand for aging existing camper vans still on the road," said Robert Veit, vice president and managing director of Mercedes-Benz USA Vans.

Standard features include:

• An elevating roof with sleeping area for two people on a 2-inch memory foam mattress alongside three windows and USB ports for lights and device charging.

• A rear bench seat that turns into a bed for two or can be repositioned along a rail to provide additional cargo capacity.

• Front seats that swivel 180 degrees to create a lounge-like feel.

• A second battery to power the camper.

Optional features include:

• Solar panels to provide off-grid power.

• 200 exterior color options.

• An 8-inch awning for shade and rain protection.

• Screens to keep out mosquitoes.

• A tent that can be attached to the rear liftgate.

• Roof racks.

• A "pullout rear kitchen."

The vehicle is made on the Mercedes-Benz Metris platform with 5,000-pound towing capacity and safety features such as a rearview camera and crosswind stability system.

The Weekender is 202.4 inches long and 74.5 inches high with a 126-inch wheelbase. Its maximum payload is 1,896 pounds, and it runs on a 2-liter, 4-cylinder, direct-injection turbocharged gas engine that generates 208 horsepower.

Orders will be accepted starting in the spring.
