3-room concept

The new California campervan, now standard with two sliding side doors, features a redesigned kitchen with a gas hob, sink, and accessible cool box, enabling a versatile three-zone camping experience with easier entry, outdoor cooking, and sheltered dining under an optional awning.

Highly flexible seating

The seating is not only more comfortable in the new California, it’s also more flexible. The individual seats in the passenger compartment can be simply moved or removed individually
