For the 2027 model year, manufacturers of semi-integrated motorhomes focus on improved comfort and flexibility rather than radical changes. The overview lists new models from Adria to Weinsberg, with prices ranging from €55,900 to €99,900. It notes that entry-level prices are stabilizing, while options and premium versions become more expensive.
Camping-Car Magazine tested the new Weinsberg CaraSuite 650 MG (2026). The model, based on a Fiat Ducato 2.2L (140 hp), features solid build quality, sleeping for three, a 145L fridge, and a practical utility compartment. Price: €70,190.
Weinsberg has introduced the Grey Edition of its Carabus (Fire) camper based on the Fiat Ducato.

Standard equipment includes alloy wheels, rear-view camera, electric step, new seats with pull-out function and lumbar support, and a new swivel toilet.
Roadsurfer tested the Volkswagen California Ocean and the Weinsberg CaraBus 540 MQ based on the Fiat Ducato. The compact California is easier to drive and park but requires raising the roof to stand up. The Weinsberg offers a fixed bed, toilet, and shower, which is convenient for multi-day trips and after races, but it feels less spacious during the day.
On July 26, 2026, Japanese YouTube channel 'Tatsuo & Umiko' posted a review of a WEINSBERG camper van built on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The vehicle features a three-burner stove, separate shower, toilet, 142-litre refrigerator, and under-seat heating. The van is 7 metres long.
Knaus Tabbert has unveiled the updated Weinsberg CaraCompact Edition Pepper for the 2026 model year. The semi-integrated motorhome is offered in three floorplans: 580 MEG (6.30 m) at €66,990, 600 MF at €67,990, and 600 MEG with twin beds at €68,990. All versions feature a redesigned rear panel with increased garage volume, LED taillights, a pull-out bench for the lounge area, and an upgraded bathroom with a swivel partition. Standard equipment includes a 153-litre compressor fridge (in the 600 MF), soft-close drawers, and an optional 230 V socket in the garage.
In 1996, the Pössl Duo Van cost 45,885 marks — exactly the same as an empty panel van at a German dealership. The company bought Peugeot chassis in Slovenia at wholesale prices and outsourced series production of the living module to Adria, a Slovenian caravan manufacturer with lower costs. Today, this model is used by many brands: Carado, Adria, Weinsberg and Pössl offer six-metre campervans with a bathroom and fixed bed from €47,499 to €63,379. A production campervan is significantly cheaper than a custom conversion, but the base price often excludes essential options.
German manufacturer Weinsberg has unveiled updates to its popular CaraCompact Edition Pepper motorhome line, including a new 580 MEG layout. The 6.30-meter model features twin beds and a forward-facing dinette. Design improvements include a modern rear end with LED lights, a pivoting bathroom with illuminated mirror, and a sliding step for the rear bed area. The vehicles are built on the Fiat Ducato chassis with a 140 hp engine.
Weinsberg has introduced the CaraLife caravan for the 2027 model year, completely eliminating gas equipment. Standard features include an induction hob, compressor fridge, LED lighting, and climate control with heating function. The absence of a gas system removes the need for cylinder replacement and regular inspections. However, all appliances require mains electricity, and the standard heating is limited. Pricing has not yet been announced.
Following a corruption scandal in 2024, Knaus Tabbert has unveiled new models at the Düsseldorf Caravan-Salon (August 28 – September 6).

Prices for the Sky TI are expected below €100,000, while the CaraCompact 580 MEG starts at €66,900.
