The all-new Volkswagen California is a reimagined take on the iconic camper van that blends style, functionality, and cutting-edge technology. Designed for every adventure but versatile enough for daily life, the new California offers an unmatched combination of comfort, practicality, and smart innovation.
The California’s newly enhanced 3-room concept revolutionises versatility. It features two sliding side doors as standard, with entry points on both sides of the van for ultimate convenience. The redesigned kitchen, positioned adjacent to one of the sliding doors, allows for effortless indoor and outdoor cooking. Equipped with a gas hob, sink, and a cool box that's accessible both inside and out, the California makes every campsite feel like home. Pair it with the optional awning for all-weather outdoor dining.
Inside, the highly flexible seating system ensures you have the space and comfort you need for every adventure. With lighter, removable individual seats in the rear, the California is easily configurable to transport larger items like surfboards or sports gear. Front seats swivel a full 180 degrees, turning the van into a cosy, lounge-like space that can seat up to five. Integrated drawers in the rear seats add further practicality, and the clever design of the sleeping function promises a restful night no matter where your travels take you.
Take your camping experience to the next level with the California’s suite of smart camping features. Key functions such as lighting, climate control, and the iconic electrohydraulic pop-up roof are managed effortlessly through the camper's new integrated control panel or the intuitive California app. The auxiliary heater, ambient lighting, and zoned temperature control provide everyday comfort, even in colder conditions.
Explore three distinct trims, each offering their own unique blend of features to suit your lifestyle:
Beach Camper - Perfect for those who love simple adventures, featuring seating for 5, sleeping space for 4, and a minimalist kitchenette with a gas hob.
Coast - Adds extra refinement with a full kitchen, 230-volt socket, 3-zone climate control, and an electrohydraulic pop-up roof.
Ocean - The ultimate California experience with enhanced technology, ambient interior lighting, LED Matrix headlights, and additional storage.
