Hobby vans 2027: a host of updates for even more enjoyment on the road

Updates to all model ranges for 2027

New reversing camera  technology: better visibility, greater safety

For the 2027 season, all Hobby vans will feature a new reversing camera system as standard. When reverse gear is selected, the high-resolution camera automatically transmits crystal-clear live  images to the cab in three different views. This makes it easy to spot even small objects behind the vehicle that might otherwise be missed. Manoeuvring – especially on narrow roads – becomes much easier and safer.

Seat comfort redefined: new driver and front passenger seats

The new season also brings a safety update for the driver and front passenger while on the road. All vans come with new driver  and front passenger seats with longer backrests and integrated headrests. As well as improving safety, they also make every journey more comfortable. The seats feature the same upholstery as the living area and fit perfectly into the harmonious overall design of the vehicle interior. 

Powerful engine options

The ONTOUR VAN and PRESTIGE VAN model ranges are equipped ex-works with a 140 hp engine and manual transmission. An optional 8-speed automatic transmission (140 hp or 180 hp) is also available for all models. The PRESTIGE VAN First Edition special model already comes with a 160 hp automatic transmission as standard – as part of its extensive special edition features and equipment. 

Hobby vans for 2027 at a glance: from the essentials to extra comfort – with everything you need

The Hobby van range carries over unchanged into the 2027 season. The number of model ranges and models therefore remains the same, but the line-up still offers something for everyone. 

ONTOUR VAN

The ONTOUR VAN is a classic CITROËN-based model with a 140 hp engine. It is available in two layouts: the ONTOUR VAN 600 FT with transverse bed and the ONTOUR VAN 640 ET with longitudinal beds. It also features a swivel washroom that transforms into a fully fledged bathroom with shower when the sink is swivelled over the toilet. A particular highlight is the ONTOUR VAN 600 FTR variant. With the optional pop-up roof and additional Rocket Camper packages, this model is the ideal holiday vehicle for families or adventurers, who can use the rear section to stow all kinds of equipment.
