STORYCA is a new business launched by Alpine in September 2021, and is developing an unprecedented car sharing service that provides a package of vehicles and outdoor equipment. Each vehicle has a concept (story) such as camping, pottering, cafe style, etc., and carefully selected outdoor items from famous brands are installed according to the purpose of the trip. The vehicle is equipped with Alpine’s latest navigation system and audio, and the exterior is also customized for outdoor specifications to create a special feeling, and users can experience a “special story out of the ordinary”.
The concept of the vehicle to be installed in the parking lot of “A PIT AUTOBACS KYOTO SHIJO” this time is “TRIP BASE STORY” where you can enjoy snow activities and group camping while staying in the vehicle. We will provide a set of TOYOTA Hiace all painted in STORYCA blue with outdoor items such as bonfire items and sleeping bags that are supposed to be used by four adults. There is also a space to store skis and snowboards inside the car, so you can enjoy snow leisure with your friends and family in a different way from the conventional winter season.
　STORYCA’s service has been deployed in Yokohama, Osaka, and Nagoya so far, and Kyoto will be the first station to be installed. We will continue to support Alpine’s efforts to expand the possibilities of car sharing.
