Karmann-Mobil has unveiled the Dexter 580 Sky Up for the 2027 season, a version of its Fiat Ducato campervan with an additional double bed in a pop-up roof. The Sky-Up roof uses a double scissor hinge to provide around 50 cm of headroom across the entire sleeping area and has a GRP shell with 2 cm polyurethane insulation. The layout retains a rear transverse bed, a bathroom with a pivoting shower wall and a kitchen block, with four berths and four seatbelts. A 120 Ah lithium battery is standard, while a second battery, a 200 W solar panel and a 6 kW air conditioner are optional. The pop-up roof adds about 140 kg, and the gross vehicle weight remains 3,500 kg. The Dexter 580 starts at 62,490 euros, with the Sky-Up roof listed at an additional 6,990 euros, bringing the minimum total to 69,480 euros.
