Our lineup starts with the Gear Bus™, a minimalist model designed for people and gear-hauling with essential comforts like sleeping, power, and heating. Pricing begins at $103,000 CAD.

Our Signature Models — Blanca 01N, Robson 01N, Teton 01N, and Logan 01N — are fully equipped, off-grid vans with kitchens, water systems, and advanced comfort features. These builds start between $209,000 and $243,000 CAD, depending on the model.

*Please note: Prices listed cover Yama’s build work only and do not include the base Sprinter van, which typically costs around $100,000 CAD.

Financing:
We offer up to 20-year RV financing through third-party partners. Typical financing may require a 10% down payment, with monthly payments varying based on interest rates and credit qualification.

American Clients:
U.S. clients are billed in USD.

Yes. We facilitate the entire process to ensure every build starts on the right foundation. Yama requires a “Yama-Spec” Sprinter, a chassis configured with the specifications our builds demand.

You will purchase the van directly from Mercedes, while we manage the coordination, logistics, and secure storage at Yama HQ until your build begins.

If you already purchased your new Sprinter, reach out to us. In some cases, we may be able to help if it meets the required specifications. For new clients, sourcing the Yama-Spec chassis through our partners is the first step in our process.

We’re typically booking 4 to 7 months out, so it’s best to start the conversation early.

Once your build enters production, it takes 8 to 10 weeks to complete your van.

We specialize in end-to-end manufacturing of Class B adventure vans on the AWD Mercedes Sprinter chassis.

Through our Bay4 Aftermarket Division, we also offer upgrades and gear installations for all Sprinter-based RVs and campers — not just Yama builds.

We do not offer partial conversions (e.g. electrical, plumbing, or cabinetry-only services).

Our vans and services are available to both Canadian and American clients.

Our models are pre-engineered for safety, serviceability, and functionality, which is why they generally stay as they are. This ensures your van not only looks great but performs reliably for years to come.

Occasionally, we’ll take on fully custom builds for people whose needs fall outside of our models. These require more design and engineering time, which can mean longer timelines and higher costs. Small tweaks to our models may also be possible, but even minor changes can affect safety and performance, so we review each request carefully.

The best way forward? Start the conversation. If you have a specific vision or change in mind, get in touch and we’ll explore what’s possible together.

Yes. We’ve earned several key certifications that speak to the safety, quality, and performance of every van we build:
