- Easy to tow and park, aided by a standard back-up camera with visual and audio assistance via a wireless monitor in the tow vehicle.
- Features space-maximizing options, multi-purpose design, and convertible seating for efficient interior use.
- Built with over 90 years of Airstream's quality craftsmanship and expert design heritage.
Interior Features & Design
The Bambi offers two interior design options: Dune and Ocean, both featuring Performatex® Fabric seating.
Dune with Performatex® Fabric Seating
Inspired by sandy seashores, this design features delicate patterns and subtle beige tones for a serene atmosphere. As described by an owner, "The neutral colors make it easy to add your own spin and make it your own."
Ocean with Navy Performatex® Fabric Seating
This option is inspired by rocky coasts and features bold blue seating that creates a dynamic color palette, offering a cool contrast to the light and airy space. An owner notes, "I love how the deep blue of the navy seating adds a cool contrast to the light and airy space."
Floor Plan Options
Airstream Bambi offers four single-axle models with distinct floor plans, making them some of the most lightweight travel trailers Airstream manufactures. They are towable by many mid-sized trucks and SUVs. The dinettes are versatile, serving as dining areas and converting easily into sleeping spaces.
