In Brief

German converter Rhoen Camper has launched The New Ultimate based on the short-wheelbase Volkswagen Transporter T7. Its key feature is an inflatable roof tent that opens sideways, providing a 200×140 cm sleeping area. Prices start at 74,990 euros.

German converter Rhoen Camper has unveiled The New Ultimate, built on the short-wheelbase Volkswagen Transporter T7 (5.05 m). The standout feature is an inflatable roof tent that opens sideways, creating a 200×140 cm sleeping area without sacrificing interior space. Inside, it includes an induction hob, a 200 Ah lithium-ion battery, and a 3000 W inverter; no gas is used. Prices in Germany start at 74,990 euros for the version with a 2.0 TDI 110 hp engine and manual transmission.

Earlier, in January 2026, Rhön Camp (likely the same company) together with Freescape presented a side inflatable pop-up roof for campers, compatible with the Volkswagen Transporter and Ford Custom. The system creates 15 m³ of living space and was showcased at the CMT fair in Stuttgart.
