If you insist on bringing a built-in shower when camping “but you don’t want to drive something the size of a Greyhound,” Airstream’s new RV “could be your rig.” It’s a relatively agile “condo on wheels.”

The Fiat Cabrio
The “irresistibly cute” new Fiat 500C has a retro-style cloth top that slides back from the windshield and folds into a neat stack behind the rear seats—even when the car is in motion. “Acceleration is leisurely” with this convertible’s 101-hp engine, but who’s to complain if you’re just headed to the beach?

Vespa’s LX 150
A modern classic, the LX 150 “cuts through snarled traffic and looks stylishly good while doing so.” Through July, select Vespa dealers are offering custom paint schemes in virtually any design or hue. Plaids, camo, or team colors, anyone?

The Ural T
Russia’s Irbit Motor Works, which once built motorcycles for the Soviet army, is now doing big business in America with its retro sidecar models.

The Polaris RZR4
Remember splashing in the rain as a kid? This 21st-century dune buggy lets you and three passengers relive that kind of outdoor fun off-road. Racing shocks, independent suspension, and fat, 26-inch tires make for a “cushy ride,” though you’ll hardly notice as you’re “laughing uncontrollably through each puddle.”
