Vango Faros III Air Low Driveaway Awning

Vango Faros III Air driveaway awnings use AirBeam technology for 8-minute inflation. 150D Sentinel Active fabric (4000mm HH) with ColourLok Eco treatment. Available in Low and Mid heights (both 205cm peak). Roll-away tunnel with two access doors, sewn-in

The Vango Faros III Air driveaway awning range delivers proper extra living space for campervans and motorhomes without dominating your pitch or filling your vehicle with bulky poles. Built around AirBeam technology refined over a decade, these awnings inflate in approximately 8 minutes using the included ergonomic pump with built-in pressure dial. The 150D Sentinel Active fabric carries a 4,000mm hydrostatic head rating with ColourLok Eco treatment that prevents fading under prolonged sun exposure whilst handling British weather reliably. Available in Low and Mid height configurations to suit different vehicle profiles, both models feature sewn-in groundsheets that create sealed environments keeping insects and draughts out completely. Diamond Clear windows maximise natural light without creating a greenhouse effect, whilst mesh front doors provide ventilation without inviting midges inside.

What makes these awnings genuinely useful for regular tourers is the roll-away connecting tunnel that detaches using toggles when you drive off for the day, leaving the main awning freestanding until you return and reconnect. The tunnel features two access doors so you can reach either end of your vehicle without walking around outside or climbing through the main living area. Multiple vehicle attachment methods come pre-fitted: 6mm kador beading for standard awning rails, 8-metre over-vehicle straps, roof bar tabs, and a sleeve for pole-and-clamp systems, ensuring compatibility with virtually any campervan or motorhome configuration. The TBS II Tension Band System braces each AirBeam at three points to prevent sideways flex when wind picks up, and you can adjust these bands tight or stow them away depending on conditions.

Practical features include the SkyTrack II hanging system running along the interior ceiling, letting you clip lights and storage pouches wherever needed rather than fixed positions. Privacy curtains operate on simple toggles for quick adjustment between airflow and sleeping privacy. Steel pegs and a bracer pole come included, with the fibreglass pole adding structural support at the front where most driveaway awnings need it. Oversized carry bags make packing away less frustrating when you're trying to leave site at a reasonable hour. The Low version weighs 13.7kg with 205cm peak height, whilst the Mid weighs 13.8kg with identical dimensions of 275cm length and 290cm width. Both models are fully rain tested to EN ISO 5912 standards and designed specifically for touring use rather than month-long static pitches, as the fabric will naturally wear faster under constant UV exposure during extended stays.
