this is a really good idea, with a price of
$10,000 (approx) cost. If you go to the site, there is an option on price of 8630 swiss francs.
I can see this being used throughout the world.

Huh?
Throughout the world huh? I can only see this being used by rich people at that price. Also, it doesn't do much more than a $5 water cube from Wal-Mart as far as sink utility. The table part really cracked me up. I don't think I have been camping too many times where I wanted to sit and eat that close to the ground. It's an invitation to ants.
Also they are space hogs. There was little room left in that trunk for anything else. Not for serious campers.

Not for the rich, the next government stimulus program.
They can setup a factory to produce them and put 100 people to work. Then they can give these out to the 1 million people who lost their jobs and their homes were foreclosed on.

Interesting design
It is misleading to say that this is a motorhome in a box. These boxes open into useful things like a sink and cooking space. It does look like a good set of car camping options to make living in a car nicer.

stay away from mosquito rich areas
In the part where they put the tents together, it doesn't look like there is any seal between the tent and the vehicle. Mosquito are bad enough in closed tents but I wouldn't want to have to sleep in a tent with gaping holes in them.

Condensation?
I'm always amused by videos of car camping, whether in SUV/minivan ads, or this video. Unless you're camping in a desert, you'll wake up to windows completely fogged up (and more likely actually dripping) from condensation from your breathing. This video showed perfectly clear & dry windows, supposedly after a night camping in a mountainous region where the evening temperature would have been quite low, well below the dew point. Those windows would have been dripping, especially with two people in the vehicle. And those unpadded dining seats didn't look too comfortable either.
I'm with @novice51, if this had only a small price premium over a pop-up, I'd consider it for the greater ease of driving and parking. But for something that will only see occasional use, this seems a ridiculous price-point.

Useful car camping accessories, but not a replacement
After living in a motor home for the past 2 1/2 years (and sitting in it right now), I don't see this as "A motor home that folds up, fits in your car". As others have pointed out in various ways, this is a nice set of utility items which fit ingeniously into a small set of packages. However, calling it a "motor home" and implying it is a complete temporary living set, even when paired with a car, is like calling a set of plastic sporks and a roll of paper towels a mobile kitchen.

Forward Thinking
It amazes me that the people who come to this site can be so negative about a new product or idea. OK so maybe it isn't a pop top, the price is too high, and getting close to mosquitoes is ill-advised, but you have to admire the ingenuity behind the product.

It would be better called a field kitchen. Honest product names and headlines make happier readers. There are good features, but I can see the little chairs breaking easily, and the table is too low to the ground. the ants and bugs will find you!
