Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has presented a new version of the Multivan Camper in the UK, developed specifically as a base vehicle for professional builders.
Launched on 16 February 2026, the model comes to market as a “blank canvas”, ready for bespoke campervan projects.

Based on the long wheelbase (LWB) version of the Multivan, the new Camper is offered with two powertrain variants and is already available to order.
Engines and prices
The base model can be configured with:
- 2.0 TDI 150 PS DSG – from £43,900 (excl. VAT) / £52,680 (incl. VAT)
- 2.0 eHybrid 240 PS DSG 4Motion – from £50,725 (excl. VAT) / £60,870 (incl. VAT)
The plug-in hybrid version with 4Motion four-wheel drive expands the range of applications, especially for customers looking for greater versatility for long journeys or varied terrain.
Structure designed for conversion
The Multivan Camper has been developed to reduce waste and make the work easier for remodelers. The vehicle is delivered from the factory with:
- Manual pop-up roof installed
- Interior roofing already installed
- Completely empty back room
- Without flooring
- Without rear seats
- Two swivel front seats
- Double sliding doors on the sides
- tailgate
This configuration eliminates the need to remove unnecessary components and reduces both cost and rebuild time.
Interior space and capacity
With the same dimensions as the Multivan LWB, the camper offers 4,053 liters of space behind the two front seats. The internal measurements are:
- Length: 2,625 mm
- Width: 1,665 mm
- Height: 1,312 mm
The volume and the internal geometry create a suitable environment for different layouts – from compact weekend solutions to more extensive projects for longer trips.
Factory adjustment
Even before the conversion, additional equipment can be selected to bring the vehicle closer to the desired end result. Among the possibilities are:
- Three-zone Climatronic air conditioning
- Heated front seats
- Navigation system
- Alloy rims
This approach allows the remodeler to start the project with a base that is better suited to the profile of the end customer.
Homologering
The Multivan Camper comes with incomplete M1 homologation, requiring conversion and a second stage of type approval for final registration. It is thus a product aimed exclusively at the professional remodeling market.
With this strategy, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles expands its presence in the campervan segment by offering an official and standardized platform where specialized companies can develop tailor-made solutions – for leisure, tourism or adventure mobility.
