7th Gen Accord Tourer was the perfect vehicle for a bit of car camping at Silverstone F1 a few years back.....with front seats forward, rear seats flat, it swallowed up a full size air bed and me comfortably (6'3") for the weekend, job jobbed.

However, these days we use an E51 Elgrand with a pop top. Even more perfect with solar & leisure battery for off grid phone charging etc.

Tesla Model Y - you can even purchase a travel mattress for it
I was going to say, an electric car (heat pump equipped) if you wanted to run the heating and cooling for a prolonged period whilst sleeping.

But whether assembling a bed and blocking out windows is what the OP wanted? I'd suggest an eye blind fixes the latter issue...
not quite assembling - mind you then you're trusting that you've got charging points near to where you intend to be...

I slept in my Saab 9-3 sportswagon a few times even in mid December in Scotland.

I wouldn’t say it’s any colder than a caravan.
Good sleeping bag pair of socks and you’re fine.
I mean, campervan, caravan, car etc it’s sleeping outside basically. It’s not like you’re in the Dorchester Hotel walking around in a bathrobe.
