Smart space, ultimate flexibility

An electric parking brake replaces the traditional manual handbrake, creating extra room between the driver’s and front passenger’s seats. Behind the front seats, there’s even more space making the new California's seating configuration highly flexible. Two adjustable and removable individual seats* in the rear passenger area make this camper van's layout easy to accommodate longer items, like surfboards.

^{* Two seats available with Coast and Ocean. Beach Camper is equipped with three individual seats in the rear.}
