Vango Faros IV Driveaway Awning

The Faros IV is a drive-away awning for campervan owners who want extra living space without losing the freedom to head out for the day. Once pitched, the roll-away tunnel lets you detach the vehicle and leave the awning standing as your campsite base — ideal for anything from a weekend break to extended stays.

Available in two connection heights to suit your vehicle:

  • Low — 180–210cm
  • Mid — 215–255cm

Measure your vehicle's connection height from the ground first, then choose the option above that covers that measurement.

Dynamic Weave™ 100 fabric

Built from Vango's Dynamic Weave 100 fabric with a 4000mm hydrostatic head rating, the Faros IV is waterproof, easily cleaned, and engineered for a strong strength-to-weight ratio at just 82g/m². The blended weave composition creates a fabric designed to last, and it meets ISO6941 fire retardant standards.

The fabric also benefits from Vango's ColourLok Eco™ treatment, improving colour retention and UV protection while reducing environmental impact through up to 80% less water usage, fewer chemicals and CO2 emissions, and lower energy consumption during manufacturing — alongside a fabric that simply lasts longer.

Dependable, straightforward pitching

The poled structure keeps setup straightforward and dependable, using Vango's PowerFlex® fibreglass poles for a strong, light and reliable frame. Clear visibility guylines in a bright colour help prevent tripping hazards and keep the awning stable in higher winds.

A fully sewn-in groundsheet helps reduce draughts, bugs and ground moisture for a more comfortable living area, while flat-entry easy access doors make getting in and out simpler — including for wheelchairs, prams, and anyone with reduced mobility.

Built for everyday living

Diamond clear windows maximise brightness and visibility, creating a spacious, airy feel inside, and a mesh front door with an internal fly screen keeps the air moving without letting bugs in. Two tunnel doors give you flexible access from either side, and the king pole door can be extended with additional king poles through the door eyelets, turning it into a canopy for shelter from sun or rain.

Inside, Vango's SkyTrack® II flexible hanging system makes it easy to attach lighting and storage throughout the awning, and toggled privacy curtains let you quickly adjust privacy and light levels to suit.
