Camper with a new look: A fresh wind for the family caravan
When Arist Dethleffs invented the original "living car” about 90 years ago, because he wanted to have his family with him during his long business trips, he laid the foundation for a new form of holiday. More than any other caravan series in the Dethleffs model range the Camper® embodies this family idea.
Now the "family"-series has undergone a facelift and in the new model year not only gets a new interior but also an upgrading of the children's sleeping areas. From the outside the reworked Camper® models with their design rear light mouldings with high-quality integral lights also fit perfectly into the modern Dethleffs model range.
Especially for kids there are now practical fabric bags and visually attractive fabric covers in the bunk bed area. In the course of the rework, the garage doors were also enlarged where technically possible, so that even more bulky holiday utensils can be stowed away. In many layouts, the lowest bunk bed can be folded up and the space below it can also be loaded from outside and used as storage space.
The Camper® has been a super solid caravan for decades: proven, successful and well thought-out", product manager Alexander Huber describes the series, which is especially characterised by practical bunk beds and highest safety standards. "Here, the basic needs, especially of families, are absolutely fulfilled - luxury can be easily added by countless options". This is certainly what the inventor had in mind: to make traveling as comfortable as possible for everyone.

I think it’s so romantic that Arist Dethleffs invented the caravan so that his family would always be with him on business trips. You also notice right away that a lot of love and experience has gone into the updated Camper. And you won’t find so many family-friendly layouts anywhere else. Every year, we put one of them through its paces and give our feedback to our colleagues. The new design – both inside and out – is convincing in every respect.
