Mercedes-Benz has presented the updated Marco Polo camper for the 2027 model year. The main change is a pop-up roof made of two-layer aluminum, which, according to sources, increases interior height by 10 cm (100 mm) and improves thermal insulation and durability. Production has moved to the Ludwigsfelde plant, where Mercedes is carrying out the conversion entirely in-house for the first time.

Other updates include a more efficient compressor refrigerator, revised awning and blackout system, improved furniture, and a new audio system. Heating, refrigerator, and audio can be controlled centrally via a touchscreen or app.

The engine lineup includes turbo diesels with 163, 190, and 237 hp, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Pricing has not been announced.
