European camper van launches 2026

Entities: Volkswagen AG · Caravan Salon Düsseldorf · Etrusco · Volkswagen Caddy · Etrusco CV 640 PB+

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, Carado used its 20‑year anniversary to unveil the CV595 X‑Edition, its first all‑wheel‑drive camper built on a VW Crafter chassis. The model, priced from €88,600 to over €100,000 with options, targets families and off‑road enthusiasts and was shown at the Düsseldorf Caravan Salon.

Later that month, Volkswagen and Italian builder Etrusco added their own family‑focused campers at the same show. Volkswagen introduced a plug‑in hybrid Caddy camper with a 150 hp engine, a 147 km electric range and seating for seven, while Etrusco presented the compact CV 640 PB+ equipped with a Skyview roof panel, adjustable rear bed and optional pop‑up roof to create up to four sleeping places. Together, these launches broadened the European camper‑van market, moving from a premium AWD offering to more affordable, hybrid‑powered and versatile family models.
