National Luna 40L Drawer Fridge/Freezer

Short Summary

The National Luna 40L Single Compartment Drawer Fridge/Freezer is purpose-built for drawer systems and low-clearance installs in 4×4s, SUVs, and canopy builds. You get full fridge or freezer functionality (down to -30°C) in a slim, space-saving design—ideal for off-road travel around Cape Town, the Western Cape, and the rest of South Africa.

Why This Product

If you’re running a drawer system, canopy, or tight load-bay setup, a standard upright fridge can be awkward: poor access, lid clearance issues, and frustrating packing. This 40L drawer-style unit solves that by sliding out smoothly while keeping a compact profile—so you can access food and drinks easily, keep everything organised, and still have space for the rest of your gear. It’s a practical, high-performance solution for clients who want a clean, professional touring setup without wasting space.
